Fingerprinting Everyone

Does anyone else do this? In view of so much theft, deception, and for the safety of all, including myself, I have decided to fingerprint everyone I notarize for, Ack or Jurat. Does anyone else do this?

I ask everyone for their thumbprint and, so far, no one has refused.
Please remember that in California we can only require prints for deeds, quitclaim deeds and deeds of trust affecting l property.
We must not refuse to notarize any other docs if the signer refuses their prints.

I also ask everyone( really I don't ask I just do it ) and no one has ever questioned it.

I fingerprint everyone. I have never been questioned.
