Completly wrong and I agree with cashies comment about crap, law abiding citizens keep themselves in line, the police are there to, (supposedly), keep the miscreants that consider themselves above or beyond the law in line.

I hope our police never have to stoop so low as to keep law abiding people in line if that happens we have all lost.
:(

Clearly anyone who isn't committing crimes is a law abiding citizen, but how many would be criminals if the police weren't there? Some, certainly.

Do you not think that most people don't commit crimes because they subconsciously weigh up their options and find that committing a crime is detrimental to their personal wellbeing?

For example: I could steal that apple, but if I was caught I'd get a social stigma as a criminal, I'd get fined, maybe a criminal record - so what's the point in stealing it?

Do me a favour tell you mate Cyfr not to bandy accywebs name around his college, we have enough home grown students of our own!

Seriously though,
People that commit crimes are criminals, the police look out for the people that have commited crimes, until a crime has been commited it is none of their business, society as a whole keeps the majority of people in check, I haven't seen a Policeman for several weeks but I haven't used that as an excuse to commit a crime because like the majority I feel I can be classed as honest.:cool:

Exactly, a DNA database or identity cards are needless intrusions into the lives of the innocent.

And I actually came here because Cyfr always goes on about various threads here and it sounded interesting! Debate and discussion is great fun. :D

It was just a shot in the dark! A bit of the way my mind works, Cyfr I'm glad you promote accyweb, Rosencrantz, along with Cashie I still think most of what you said is carp, but at least it's spelt without TXT speak.
:rofl38:

Ah, but we've had people claiming to be 'English Teachers' on here that wouldn't have passed a Primary school exam so you are quite unique in that respect.

To bring this thread back to where it started. Loz talked about extreme cases.

Well just over 60 years ago if you were Jewish in a european country you were forced to wear a Star of David on your outer garments, these poor people were treated to horrific crimes against humanity, all because of religion.

Now let us say we have a rather strong Right Wing government in power, say the one Nick Griffin is the leader of. You now know the ethnic origin of every single one of us, so you now have the power to round up people who don't conform to your ideals.
It has happend before and over 6,000,000 people were murdered, we start down this slippery slope it will happen again.
This argument about crime, is utter rubbish, DNA alone cannot be used to convict, all it shows is that you were in the area, or you touched someone at the time. And finally do you REALLY, REALLY trust this or any future government with your most personal details, your biological database, the blueprint to your being. I don't

Aren't we at war now?
