Traffic Cop Fingerprinting: Update

An alert populace apparently got to the Green Bay Police Department, proving once again our voices are heard. Their policy to fingerprint traffic violation offenders has come to a halt. Cops stop fingerprinting traffic violators:

With public fears of a police state being created in Green Bay, Wis., law enforcement authorities are dropping a new policy where officers collected fingerprints from traffic violators.

The practice would have continued if people wouldn't have voiced their protests. This wasn't a program to prevent terrorism, nor was it promoted as such; but when questionable police tactics like this pop up, people need to speak up and make sure the authorities are within the legal limits of the law. Which is why, boys and girls, it is necessary to read the Constitution from time to time.
