Fingerprinting


I noticed a flyer for a kiddie's party/event - possibly part of Police Week - where one highlight was children's fingerprinting. Elsewhere in the world, it would probably create a civil liberties outrage. Here, it may signal that this innovative new technology is being adapted in Dominica. The last time I looked at official crime-related statistics, there were zero crimes solved using fingerprint evidence.... But maybe it was just a typo for 'fingerpainting'!

Dominica is, indeed, moving in that direction. It is becomming Americanized. Another example is that the P.M. thinks an oil tank farm won't cause pollution! I say Sr. Hugo is out for himself and Mr. P.M. should have stayed on his cruize if he feels that way. But then again, that women's group likes him so I guess he is an O.K. guy, right? Ha!
