"How would you feel if you went to the grocery store, and you went to sign a check and they demanded a thumbprint?" Weinstein said.

If they demand it every time I come in, yeah, I mind.
Once? not a problem.

Anyone who seriously wants my thumbprint can find it.
I can understand the need, and yes, people who have nothing to hide usually don't mind.
And people who have tons to hide, from criminal intent to drug use mind ----- a lot.

People who have nothing to hide mind quite a bit, thank you very much.

Chances are real good that you will hear the sound of the oven door closing behind you before you realize the mistake in judgment you have made.

Gawd, I'm sick of people saying that.

Would you allow the cops to pull you over and search you car without a warrant or specific reason?

Would you allow social services to examine or question your children without your knowledge?

Would you allow a search of your home without a warrant?

Would you allow the IRS to browse through your financial papers?

How abour giving up DNA samples without a warrant?

Remember:"people who have nothing to hide usually don't mind."

I have nothing to hide, AND I HAVE NOTHING WRONG

So, why the firetruck do you want my thumbprint? Have we changed from "innocent until proven guilty" to "always a suspect under any and all conditions"? You bet I mind!

SO, NO! YOU CAN NOT HAVE MY EFFING FINGERPRINTS, BUT YOU CAN KISS MY @SS!

You are right, lets see.

We don't need the first amendment because we don't have anything to say about anything.

And if we don't have anything to hide we certainly don't need the second amendment because we don't need to fear anyone.

We don't need the fourth amendment because if we don't have anything to hide, anyone can search our stuff because we don't have anything to hide.

We don't need the fifth amendment because if we have nothing to hide, we don't need to worry about due process.

And we don't need the sixth amendment because if we have noting to hide, we don't need to worry about a speedy trial.

And if we don't have anything to hide, we don't need the seventh amendment, who needs a trial by jury.

And we don't need the eighth amendment, because if we don't have anything to hide why do we need to worry about excessive bail? And if we don't have anything to hide, we don't need the ninth amendment because we don't have anything to hide.

You are so right, the bill of rights are just stupid. All we need is the third and the tenth amendments.

You are a very stupid person. You don't deserve any rights because you don't understand what they are all about.
