Which mug shots would you include in that accesible-to-everyone database?
Mug shots of everyone with a criminal record, or only those of criminals
who are currently on the "Wanted" list? I wouldn't have a problem with the
latter, but I would have a problem with the former. It could lead to major
problems with returning prisoners to society.
Right now we have some problems here with releasing pedophiles back into
society after they finished their prison time: everybody agrees those
people need to live somewhere, as long as it isn't in *their* neighbourhood.

who, btw, doesn't have a criminal record
