How about fingerprinting fingers, hey, I bet the real smart guys can do something so that might not work either. Do you support that?

Self defense against tyranny for all paranoids, yes, I do understand, they are after you, defend yourselves. Do you understand that a lot of people laugh at you?


You're a little too light upstairs for anyone to be worried about. Thanks for the non-effort at rebuttal.

John Dillinger actually tried that one. He tried to use acid to remove his fingerprints. The results made his fingerprints even more unique. There is another huge difference between fingerprints and ballistics. Fingerprints do not change over time and perpertrators can use gloves or wipe prints, but luckily a lot of perpertrators leave prints anyways. With the "ballistic fingerprinting" its like having every single perpertrator wearing a glove thus making the fingerprinting useless. If every perpertrator used gloves, I'd be againt fingerprinting too, but thats not how it is.

We have 500,000 innocent victims of violent crime in this country every year. Their lack of paranoia as you put it made them victims. Really it was their lack of being prepared. Howard, you're just in denial that it can't happen to you, it can only happen to somebody else. Well, you're wrong. You take a small chance everyday of being a defenseless victim.
