Anyone who’s ever been arrested will tell you that the fingerprint machine at the local precinct is a total p.o.s. The cops must hate it, too, having to hold a stranger’s hands for 10 straight minutes until they get the stupid computer to read the ink blots.

So, in a way, Salmineo Romero (booked for just a misdemeanor and with no prior felonies, mind you) committed an act of heroism last week, standing up for all the people stuck in deadening office jobs replete with dropped calls and printer jams. Too bad he got tased.
