Having her name tattooed on her, so they could be told apart, was the beginning of a trend

I did that when I was fourteen...just incase I got amnesia and forgot my name...it was accompanied by a simple that represented the reason why I was sitting where I was...what a stupid kid

Choban, i think you are still missing my real point, which is the erosion of our civil rights, and invasion of privacy. My fingerprints on my fingers are MINE. If i leave them on a glass in a restaurant, then they are public.

Jim, I get your point, it's how you stated it that got lost in translation so to speak!
Don't get me wrong, if the whole country was ordered to go to their local police station and submit their prints then I'd be up in arms about it, in this case they only want to print people who are already arrested.
