willie,

You NAILED IT!!!:) How is it NOBODY can see these little steps towards the END OF OUR FREEDOMS??? They " ALWAYS " start out for the protection of us and our young, then they REALLY DO WHAT THEY WANT!!!:(:(

Brother I am one of those stupid people who still believe we are FREE! And will NEVER shame and disgrace those before us, PERIOD!!!

Cowards who sacrifice the freedoms of their children WAS NOT what those before us sacrificed for, FACT!!!

STAND UP AMERICAN, those coming behind us and those who sacrificed BEFORE US, DESERVE AND DEMAND IT!!! They were not cowards hiding in the dark, waiting for our PUBLIC SERVANTS to handle the problems!!!

There Has To Be A Better Way!:)

I go with marks on this one. Drugging up is illegal and until that's changed (and I doubt it ever will be) you have to be willing to be tested.
If you don't like getting a ticket for speeding, don't speed.

I have seen where many companies say they drug test for safety reasons. i think as an employer of the Congress they should all be tested because they are responsible for laws that affect the safety of all of us. How do we know that they are not in an alcohol or drug induced stupor? The way they act half the time I have reasonable doubts about them.

Now correct me if it has changed, but I thought the testing was for athletes, etc and not just every student. Every child has a right to an education but NOT to extra- curricular activites, those are a privilage. Therefore, they have an option not to partake. The forth ammendmeant deals with everyday rights such as your house (which is a "need" not a "want" like sports). If kids don't want to be drug tested, then they don't go out for sports...simple enough.

P.S. Kids rights are seriously hindered, they DO NOT have the same rights as adults because they also don't have the same responsiblities as adults.

P.P.S. I am completely on board with drug testing of congress!

Sadly once again things with hidden agendas were slid in under the guise of safety. And like today the same thing is happening with our young under the guise of protecting our young!!

Time and time again employers and Insurance companies escape liability and accountability by using a UA, FACT! There are cases where people who have been injured on the job THROUGH NO FALT of their own actions. But due to a REQUIRED UA at the clinic or hospital it shows SOMETIME in their past they did pot, FACT! They don't have to PROVE anybody was under the influence, just that they once did it! AND THAT IS PURE BSSSSSSSS! It sickens me to see our people turning in to such cowards, to the point some believe it is acceptable for an employer to own you 24/7! If they can dictate what you do, why is it they don't have to pay you 24/7?? Didn't slavery go out 200 years ago??

Here is a link to some documented truth!

http://www.drugwarfacts.org/drugtest.htm

6. A positive drug test does not indicate whether an employee was impaired or intoxicated on the job, nor does it indicate whether an employee has a drug problem or how often the employee uses the drug. Thus most tests do not provide information relevant to job performance.
Source: Lewis Maltby, Vice President, Drexelbrook Controls, Horsham, PA, as cited in Report of the Maine Commission to Examine Chemical Testing of Employees, (December 31, 1986).

7. Companies which use Factor 1000, an impairment testing system, find that drug and alcohol use are not the most common reasons for accidents; rather, severe fatigue and illness are more common.

9. The American Management Association surveys US employers on various policies including testing for illegal substance use. According to their 2004 survey, in 1995 78% of companies did some sort of testing for illegal drugs, with 63% of companies testing applicants and 68% testing current employees. By 2004, the number dropped to just 62% of all companies testing for illegal drugs, with 55% testing applicants and 44% testing current employees.

Fourth Amendment – Protection from "unreasonable search and seizure".


"The right of the people to be secure in their persons....."

I do NOT do any drugs and I do NOT drink. I should NOT have to 'prove my innocence' for no reason. It is "unreasonable" to force me to be tested or lose my job. It is a VIOLATION of my rights to "be secure in my person".
If you feel that 'Well, if you don't have anything to hide, it shouldn't matter' then you are missing the point. Why not just implant a chip that will monitor how much alcohol, drugs, fat,sugar, etc. that you consume and ticket you accordingly? How would you feel if everytime you opened your door to go to work you had a policeman there who hauled you off to jail to be tested?
Not for any reason, except that he could?
That is why Congress says it would violate their rights and that is why it violates EVERYONES rights.

If you are in the hospital you have NO guarantee that the person administering your drugs is not high. Drug abuse is everywhere.
Instead of subjecting me to a random test why not STOP all the gazillion Tons of drugs that you know for a FACT are pouring across our borders?

Orphan,

This new policy IS FOR ALL KIDS! Not just those in sports or other activity, ALL! And all with NO PROABLE CAUSE!!! Check out the link I put on the other post!:)
