STRIP SEARCHES FOR KIDS?

Re: Flin Flon trustees consider drug tests (April 14). Why not do
strip searches and drug test every kid every morning before school?
"Pee in the cup, junior, or you don't get to learn anything today."
It will create jobs, but better yet, it will stifle any ideas the
kids might have about privacy and fairness.

These in-school drugs tests will do little to curb drug use, but
then, that isn't the point. The point of this kind of testing is to
scare kids into obedience and compliance, and accustom the next
generations to an ongoing and ever-present police presence in daily
life. By the year 2030, people will accept the government's ownership
of their bodies and minds, and the very notion of privacy will be a
thing of the past. Orwellian police states don't pop up overnight,
they creep in slowly.
