If they are going to collect DNA to build a database, everyone should have to donate it. Otherwise it is discrimination. But it should only be able to be used in the pursuit of a serious crime, like murder or rape or burglery or arson, stuff like that.

Smoking pot? No, it should not be used for that. That isn't even a crime in some states anymore. They just give you a ticket, like a parking ticket. If Reagan hadn't come into office and made the laws so much stiffer against pot, it would probably be completely legal now. Carter was on the way to legalizing it, when someone in his cabinet was caught with cocaine, and that was such an embarrassment he kind of abandoned the whole legalization thing about pot.
