Police Begin Fingerprinting on Traffic Stops

December 24th, 2007

See, the pigs need the biometric ID to protect you, to make sure they only issue bullshit revenue generating tickets to the right slaves.

Why not just get the eye scan, ear lobe and gate recognition data too?

If you’re ticketed by Green Bay police, you’ll get more than a fine. You’ll get fingerprinted, too. It’s a new way police are cracking down on crime.

If you’re caught speeding or playing your music too loud, or other crimes for which you might receive a citation, Green Bay police officers will ask for your drivers license and your finger. You’ll be fingerprinted right there on the spot. The fingerprint appears right next to the amount of the fine.

Police say it’s meant to protect you — in case the person they’re citing isn’t who they claim to be. But not everyone is sold on that explanation.

“What we’ve seen happen for the last couple of years [is] increasing use of false or fraudulent identification documents,” Captain Greg Urban said.

Police say they want to prevent the identity theft problem that Milwaukee has, where 13 percent of all violators give a false name.

    “I would feel uncomfortable but I would do it,” Carol Pilgrim of Green Bay said.

    I wonder how far Carol’s uncomfortableness could be pushed? Mouth swab? Rectal exam? Of course, it’s all meant to ‘protect’ her….

    The Green Bay police department probably already has my fingerprints on file. I lived there in my youth, and I remember my parents taking me to the local mall because the police were fingerprinting children “in case we should go missing”. Thanks, mom and dad. 🙁
