Looked to me like one member of a major party blowing a lot of hot air. Never happens in the US of course. I won't bore you with links.
And a cop, one cop, who wants DNA records on everyone. Hardly policy.
Of course, the US would never do anything like that. Ask the NSA what they do. Ask Homeland Security what they do. You cannot enter the US, even in transit, without being fingerprinted and undergoing a retinal scan. Unless, of course, you have become a citizen and pledged your allegiance to a fucking flag. Rock on freedom.
