WHY DO TEACHERS THINK DRUG TESTS INSULTING?

Why would teachers resist random drug testing if they are not using
drugs?

Why do some of them think that it's insulting and demoralizing to
their profession, and why would it be more difficult to recruit
teachers from the Mainland? Do teachers think they are better than the
rest of us? Where is their dedication to and concern for students?

Some organizations have had random drug testing of their employees for
years. I think it would be wise and beneficial for all other
professions, including doctors, lawyers and legislators, to be subject
to random drug testing.

If a person is not using illegal drugs, there is no reason for
resisting drug testing, especially given the high number of crimes
caused by substance abuse.
