What's new

How many on here have never been finger printed?

They used to finger print kids in elementary school…. Something about safety/abduction?
In the 80’s after Johnny Gosch was abducted and it made national news they started finger printing kids in grade school.
 
50 years old Never been fingerprinted with ink.

Phone bio-metrics uses my right thumb so it's out there in a database somewhere.
A place I worked had a bio-metric lock based on the shape of your hand. You'd stick your hand in this thing after scanning your employee ID, and if it was you, the door would unlock. So one day, I'm coming back from lunch with my boss and I said, I'll scan my card, and you put your hand in the reader, and 'click' the door unlocked. I don't know how much money they paid for that system, but it didn't work worth a fuck.
 
A couple of times that I remember. First one was to coach youth sports when all the safe sport stuff came about and the second was to handle radioactive sources in the oilfield.
 
Nope, never not once. I figure if they want my prints, DNA or whatever they will just follow me around or go diggin' through my garbage but I ain't gonna help em' any.
 
MN doesn't require fingerprints for a carry permit

I haven't had mine taken ever
other than the kischy baby footprints they do when you're born, if that counts who the fuck knows
 
Honestly don't think so officially.

My mom might still have a card I remeber making at school using my finger prints. :flipoff2:
 
Mine are all over the place :homer:

Buying guns & ammo, Military service, background checks for Lacrosse, to unlock my iPad (phone is facial recognition), drivers license. I’m sure there’s more I don’t recall at the moment.
 
I don't think I've been...I had a background check once but I don't think they took fingerprints as part of it? It's nearly 20 years ago now and I honestly can't remember.
 
Probably happened the first time in elementary school, (70's) not my control, arrested a couple times through my youth, Denied them twice at work when they wanted to print me to exclude me as a suspect because I may have touched something at a crime scene. I told them my prints should be in the system go fuck yourself, that was a good time. Everyone but me got printed :flipoff2::flipoff2:, Company required TWIC card, CCW, and another double throw down super secret deal.

I'm pretty well documented:homer:
 
First in the late 70's, when I needed clearance and a background check for working at a nuclear power plant. Few times there after for legal docs and CCW appliction.

How fucked up does your finger have to get before that doesn't work?
 
Navy finger printed me for a security clearance. Finger printed again before working for a defence contractor (security clearance). 36 years
 
When I was 15 I got arrested for wreckless driving (2 mopeds in the same lane), no insurance, improper safety equipment (no goggles or safety glasses), no license plates and no drivers license. This was a Suzuki kick start 30 mph moped I bought when I was 13 to do a paper route.

My buddy was on a Honda Passport moped had a top speed of 50 mph. We were at the neighborhood pool with some girls and decided to ride the long way back home thru the local university that I later went to and got a degree from. We turned into the university and a cop saw us and turned behind us. I caught up to my buddy and said “Hey, there is a cop behind us…” right as he turned on the lights / sirens. By me being next to my buddy to tell about our 5.0 problem we were 2 abreast in one lane (wreck less driving).

My mom the next day went down to the police station to talk to the officers supervisor and complain and wound up going full Karen on the lieutenant supervisor and the arresting officer that ended with her yelling at them in front of the whole squad room (15-20 other cops). She was yelling that it was trumped up charges and a disservice to the community and they were ruining 2 really good kids lives etc. My dad didn’t know she did this and I heard about it when my dad did at the same at dinner - he said this will be great (sarcasticly) when we go to court. My mom didn’t know I had a court date and looked white as a ghost at the news.

We lawyered up - the lawyer told me not to get my license yet because they can’t put charges on something you don’t have (brilliant move). He told us to get insurance and plates for my moped. We went to the DMV and had to get a supervisor involved. The moped didn’t go fast enough to qualify for plates or insurance due to DOT regulation. Great, will you write us a letter detailing all of this for the court. The DMV supervisor said sure I’ll type up a letter on letterhead and explain the law for the officer.

So we go to court and the judge wasn’t happy with what transpired with the traffic stop. He reduced the charge of reckless driving down to improper handling. He threw out the registration for the plate and the insurance due to the DMV letter. He dismissed the improper eye protection because that only is valid for a motorcycle. Because I delayed getting my drivers license, the improper handling charge went on my juvenile record and not on my brand new drivers license.

I’m still friends with a buddy that I got arrested with. We were in each other’s weddings, as groomsmen, and after college, actually lived together as roommates for a while before we got married. The cop that pulled us over was a known kid harasser and had multiple complaints against him for pulling over teenagers for BS traffic issues, such as loud exhaust or improper mudflaps, etc. He got fired for lying about a traffic stop and evidence of some kind. We got processed in the university police station and the university cops were rolling their eyes at the charges the county guy was processing us for…

TL:DR - yeah I have been fingerprinted :lmao:
