The Nanny State in full and glorious flower:
Absolutely. You could also determine who drank out of that illegal 32-oz drink cup so they could be re-educated. And maybe find prints on discarded cigarette butts so the proper authorities could track down the perps and pack them off to detox for their own good.
Still, I find this a half-hearted measure. Much better to microchip all public housing occupants so their activities and whereabouts can be tracked in real time, 24/7. Nobody should object unless they're up to no good, right? We care enough about dogs to have them microchipped -- shouldn't we be equally concerned about our public housing folk? Of course, and while we're at it, let's get a DNA sample, too. Why the hell not?
Michael Bloomberg: Building the better society that you will eventually grow to like.
It's all good.
