Should the Police be Allowed to Take your DNA?

Do you think that the police should be able to take blood samples? Do you think that your DNA should be collected by law enforcement, even if you have not been found guilty of a crime?  I know that it seems like it can't be real, but not only is this happening across the country, it is being backed by courts as legal.

We are on a dangerous path if this kind of stuff is allowed to continue without objections from the public. Some officials are not completely on board. Maryland's Supreme court backed a lower court's ruling that blocks police from collecting DNA samples upon arrest. That ruling, however, is facing objection and might be overturned, once more allowing police to steal DNA from citizens.

Read about this injustice here.
