Question: DNA of suspects' families to be held...

[antidisestablishmentarian]

Hello

On this article, it says: "people the police believe are related to criminals are being asked to give DNA samples - sometimes covertly. If they refuse, they could see their medical records released so that stored tissue samples, including blood, can be genetically tested by the police."

http://prisonplanet.com/articles/november2006/261106DNA.htm

Does this mean that they have tissue and blood samples of us in storage? For example, if I go for a routine blood test, do they keep some of my blood in storage, so that they can add it to their DNA database later on if they want?!!?

Any hospital/health workers know about this?

Who would I ask to find out if this is happening or not?

cool!

of course they've been doing this covertly for years.

the question is what are they going to do with it?

a bio weapon that targets you or your family specifically?

No they will get a nice pretty flow chart in 10 years time that indicates that criminal behaviour is obviously do to your geneology.

"Look at my charts see"

What they will fail to mention is that it isnt so much genes rather than circumstances of families that have a negative effect on a childs upbringing.

Eventualy they will use this to divide society up into classes as such, in preperation for the classic prole/outerparty/innerparty set up or however you wish to interpret it, with the working class minions working and behaving like animals (or brain dead drones), the middle class as the workhorse and the target of the most investigation and prejudice by the system, and the upper echalons which manufactur the propaganda and keep the bottom two classes in line. Each will have its own hierarchy aswell meaning eventualy noone will really know who is truly in charge other than those in charge.......

....oh wait....WAIT A MINUTE! OMFG WE ARE LIVING IN 1984!

of course, in the mean time they'll flog the data to the insurance industry so they can fleece us more effectively
