There have been numerous indications that people have abused their power at the NSA by tracking ex-girlfriends. Facebook is the same way. So if their is now a DNA registry who is to say that law enforce can just say we found their DNA at the scene? Can most suspects afford to have experts to refute that? It's virtually an ironclad conviction.
Why can't they just do that now? Law enforcement isn't getting your physical dna. They are just getting a report on it's contents. They can't just 3d print some of your blood and put it on the murder weapon like law abiding citizens can 3d print a gun.

They use it today to catch a serial killer, but do you trust police officers to continue to limit it to that? I'd say history has proven that government thugs will sell it to the public as being used for noble purposes and then abuse that power and use it for nefarious purposes.

I don't view law enforcement as the enemy like you do. Of course any information can be misused and it may happen but I'm not going to worry about law enforcement having this ability when there are so many simpler ways to frame me for murder if they so choose.

If you don't view law enforcement as the enemy, then you haven't been paying attention.
