What say you?

I dont agree

This is really a compelling argument for this very well written article. I am glad they dug into the counter point so deeply.

Arguably the best movie of Ethan Hawke's career.  As for the Supreme Court ruling, I think it's a case where the benefits outweigh the negatives.  I can see both sides of the argument, but at the end of the day, if this is just limited to law enforcement, and it helps us convict more rapists and murderers, I'm for it.  Most states already use DNA swabs anyways.

I agree with Scalia.
I've said it before and I'll say it again, K-State fans could have beheaded the entire KU team at midcourt, and K-State fans would be celebrating it this morning.  They are the ISIS of Big 12 fanbases.

Jude Law is very good in it as well - when he has to climb the stairs then gives cops the business "What's your number? No, no... What's your number, you rough ridin' flatfoot'!"

Should only be able to use DNA to exonerate those already convicted

I think reasonable suspicion that comes with a warrant during the investigation of crime is okay too. .

DNA that is deemed not to be involved in crimes must be destroyed  and wiped clear of all databases.
