okay i'm definitely for drug random drug drug testing and any kind of drug testing to try
hm
and get rid of it
hm but don't you don't you find that that sort of imposes imposes a um
i mean it it i i
taking away people's free agency
pretty yes i think so i mean i
how many times do you think drug people have taken away people's free agency
well not probably not as often as as as you'd like to think and and when you when you take and i i mean it's like
would you like to have somebody would you like to have the police able to come to your house and search for for let's say weapons uh twice a day without telling you
um would you like to have them come and find and look maybe for uh oh uh
illegal illegal books and and could they come and and and just knock on the door and walk in your house
and say i want i wanna find illegal books
no but as long as you are working for somebody you are
yeah well
more or less under their jurisdiction
um-hum okay well would would you
the place at work would you like them to be able to search your purse and and then every time
anytime they wanted to just come and and check to see if you had anything that was maybe against the company
i i i'm it's not that i'm in favor of of you know that i think people should be allowed to take drugs at the job or or you know anything like that of course but
on the other hand it it's it seems a little bit nasty to me just to have this uh um
you know it seems quite an imposition on on personal freedom to have
um you know it the the the vast majority of people that are at work aren't aren't taking drugs and have nothing to do with them and yet they're being subjected to the to the same kinds of of imposition
that everybody else is and and i think i think that that's just unfair if you put it in a different context you see the same either the same you know it it get becomes a little clearer of course you know i'm my assumption is that
that you don't take drugs and and and you of course would never have have nothing to hide in that sense and so it that doesn't doesn't hit home very close right but when it's something else it it does hit home and and
right
i've you know it ah it it gets more like a police state um and it's a lot less like America to me and and i find that uh
i find it pretty offensive to have you know to have to be subjected you know i mean to to subject everybody to that kind of of of uh how you know random search
it wouldn't bother me and i don't think it would bother any of my family i have a son that's a doctor and i have a son that's an airline pilot
and
yeah uh
and i think they're they are among the top ones that should be subject to to that
yeah yeah uh you know and and again again you know in my case i have nothing to hide and i'm not gonna you know it's not gonna hurt me but on the other hand i'm very
uh it it perturbs me to have the this issue
uh one of our freedoms so called
yeah i mean just to to to be able to walk in and say you know now you have to show us this or you have to do that or you have to and
taken away
um it it seems it it seems like it's an erosion of of of a lot of what makes uh the the United States what it is and and i i i strongly dislike that um and so
well i'm for doing it because i think that it is a protection against the majority of the of the citizens
yeah now actually actually i i don't take a a totally strong position on it i mean i think that i think there are certain certain positions
you're just trying to argue with me to show another point
no no no i i think that there are there are certain positions where the
the benefits of it outweigh the the the disadvantages of it and and like you say you know maybe airline pilots or or um you know people who who whether
i have a son that's a doctor what about him
uh-huh
yeah i i suppose you know i i i kind of wonder about sort of random testing in general i i guess random testing is a way to make people not not feel like they're being singled out
right
right because you know it seems like that that um you ought to be able to tell who who has a problem and and uh
and be able to deal with them um but but i suppose that has uh some uh some negative side effects too right i mean people still
maybe they would feel like they were being
persecuted or something right um and uh and i supposed that the random testing and i guess the logic is that if as long as
um-hum um-hum
you know if if if you're not involved then you don't have a problem with it it shouldn't it shouldn't be any an issue for you and and and eventually the people that are actually
doing that and causing the problems will be will be caught at it but um
i don't know
i just really feel strongly against drugs because i think that they're they're tearing our nation apart they're tearing families apart they're tearing
um-hum
um-hum
good people that
you know uh could would be asset a asset to the community and to the nation and i just think that drugs is
um yeah
i just try so hard i would try so hard to get them out of wherever they were
yeah i i you know it's it's sort of like you know i i i don't i just disagree with your position in general it's it's just that it's kind of
