Taking DNA samples by force without a court order, even from convicted felons, is in fact illegal in Michigan. State prison officials are working on a bill that will make it legal, but the Muskegon county prosecutor decided he didn't need any silly state law and swabbed everybody's spit anyway.
If prisoners have no rights, what's stopping guards and wardens from staging gladiatorial contests in which inmates fight to the death? And if capital punishment is cheaper than lifelong incarceration, isn't a bullet to the back of the head cheaper than a trial?
I think active members of the military would be surprised to learn that they have no rights. On the other hand, Pfc. Bradley Manning no doubt agrees with this assessment.
I want to go rob a bank & drop off the get away vehicle stuffed with money at the ACLU, they are going to need a lot of help these days. Tague should be ashamed of his "overstretch", really he should end up in jail for this kind of bullsh*t.
