So, here is the expansion of the DNA Sampling.

The New York Times explains:

"The Justice Department is completing rules to allow the collection of DNA from most people arrested or detained by federal authorities, a vast expansion of DNA gathering that will include hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants, by far the largest group affected.

The new forensic DNA sampling was authorized by Congress in a little-noticed amendment to a January 2006 renewal of the Violence Against Women Act, which provides protections and assistance for victims of sexual crimes. The amendment permits DNA collecting from anyone under criminal arrest by federal authorities, and also from illegal immigrants detained by federal agents."

I've read the entire article. If I understand correctly, when you're arrested as an illegal immigrant, you're probably a sexual offender. WHAT?

"Some of these are very bad people," Senator Jon Kyl (Arizona) said. "The number of sexual assaults committed by illegal immigrants is astonishing."

And what about the number of sexual assaults committed by American citizens? And what about the illegal immigrants that never committed a sexual offense?

These affirmations sound to me like excuses. Lame excuses to justify the DNA sampling for immigrants. What really worries me, is what are they going to do with the DNA data. What are they real intentions.

Does anyone has a clue?
