DRUG TESTING SHOULD BE UP TO PARENTS
Drug testing of children should be between the child and the parents -with
their own money - without intrusion by the schools or the state. Stop
asking the government to raise other people's children with my tax dollars.
Making people urinate on demand beginning when they are very young
desensitizes them to the governments' war on people's privacy, personal
liberties and dignity in the name of "the drug problem" which, in reality,
is a prohibition problem. Hitler and his Nazi youth groups would be proud.
The drug war also promotes, justifies and perpetuates racist enforcement
policies and is diminishing many freedoms and liberties that are supposed
to be inalienable according to the Constitution.
