As a true conservative, I am diametrically opposed to forcing
"fingerprinting" or other such nonsense on the law-abiding public.

who have access to
classified information! If I was John Q. Public, I wouldn't want to be
fingerprinted for no good reason either.

AHA! See? Now maybe you "get" the reason why so many of the volunteers said,
"Thanks but no thanks, bye."

But, if I (John Q. Public) was
employed by the federal governmant that required me to be fingerprinted, I'd
either follow the rules or find another job. Thank you for inadvertantly
proving my point AGAIN.

"If it wasn't for stupid people I'd be unemployed."

You're employed by a place that deliberately hires stupid people? In law
enforcement? What are you, the bait?
