Definately against a DNA database.

Jurys DO convict on circumstantial evidence. All it takes is an "Expert Witness" and you're banged away for something you didn't do. Let's face it, an expert witness offers an opinion, it is NOT evidence yet we get innocent mothers shut away for killing their children, then some nutter of an expert witness turns up and says the father must have done it because of something the looney expert saw on telly.

Don't make me laugh about the police only arrresting guilty people. They've been caught out fitting people up too often for my liking on that one, and finding one of my hairs in a hire car that was used to transport a body some weeks or months later and then me getting hauled off by our wonderful boys in blue does not appeal, so let's not give them another tool to finger innocent people.

This DNA database should be resisted with every fibre of all our collective being for the above reasons.
