"who choose to park vehicles on any of the Fort Payne school campuses will be subject to random testing."

So if you drive to school we get to take and test your body fluids.... that's very American /s

During the first phase, any student may volunteer to become part of the pool for random testing.

Volunteer to have your rights violated. The brainwashing of our youth continues. You must conform, like a good citizen.

I think this is a great idea. It might finally sink in to the general public what these government indoctrination camps are really all about with a pig-headed, and I do mean pig, "program" like this.

Drug testing is needed for teachers and administrators.

A number of groups therefore fall under the umbrella for random testing, including all sports teams, band members and students involved in such organizations as Family, Career and Community Leaders of America, Future Farmers of America, high school chorus, scholar’s bowl team, math team, student council and French and Spanish clubs.

Because these students are where the drug problem is.

Ridiculous! I have a teen-age son. If I want to give him a test, it is fine, but the school etc can stay out of it.
Now, I do have some tests and he knows that I can test him at any moment. I haven't yet! ;)I like the deterrant factor. Understand that I hope he is smart enough not to, but he has that extra incentive. In a way, it can relieve the peer pressure because he can say that his mom may test him.

Well, they can't drug test all of students because half the students would flunk the test and, then what?

Hey, you might as well get the kiddies used to it. It's going to get worse.

Police were tipped off to the game when a friend of a local police officer invited him to play.

I guess the only question now is whether they are fascists or commies.

I sure am glad my kids are out of the education system 'cause I probably would end up in the slammer if this stuff was tried on my kids.

By the way, has anyone sent a package by UPS lately? I haven't send one for at least a year until yesterday. The GED clerk behind the counter said he wanted to see my drivers license before he would ship. I showed him my CHL with my thumb intentionally across my picture. He glanced at it and that was it. Oh, Mr. Orwell if you only knew.

My daughter graduated from an all girls Catholic school. In her junior and senior years, the school instituted a drug testing program for all students. There were no exceptions to this rule. If you wanted to attend the school, you had to comply. The testing required the cutting of a small amount of hair near the crown of the head. My daughter had no problems with doing it, and because we wanted her to continue at this school, we went along.

The program is being implemented through a grant obtained through the Partnership for a Drug-Free DeKalb County. [snip]

Partnership received a $500,000 grant last year to implement drug testing in both the city and county school systems.

Where does the Partnership get its money?

And we wonder why our children don't value privacy and freedom. We have taught them that Orwell's nightmare of statism is actually utopia.
