Ultimate Hypocracy - Florida Rules Drug Testing Govt Workers Unconstitutional

You're correct, OP. People on welfare can't afford drugs. But somehow some do - either by selling their food stamps or by robberies. Welfare recipients should be tested on a regular basis.

And government workers are the ultimate 'welfare queens.' Goddamn parasites.

It's none of your business asshole.
I think you should have hands amputated after first traffic violation .

Your a fucking tard, getting government money is NOT a liberty you dumb shit. If your on public assistance, you should be privy to drug testing. I live in Florida and know people who have been on welfare and used the welfare money to get food so they can use their food money for drugs. I'm tired of paying for freeloading drug addicts.

You that stupid dude wtf do you call those fuckers with a Gov job the ultimate welfare damn you stupid cuz.

People on welfare should be drug tested.

It's none of your business asshole.

Sigh... It's not your and idiot. It's You're (you are) an idiot! Please continue on now!

People on welfare should be drug tested.

I believe testing is a violation of my rights.

What happened to the Constitution? What happened to America?

If an employer has a reason to question your work or your mental state while at work, then that's different. By all means, they should investigate.

Is this now a police state? WTF??????????

And it always boils down to money.

Legalize Cannabis.

Why are there two classes of people? The elite government types that can use cannabis... While the elites & tptb punishes everyone else for using cannabis.

This should not be.

I don't see why cannabis is illeagal, ecspecially when Barack Obama is snorting cocain, shooting up, and doing no telling what other kind of drugs everyday.

In the ultimate in your face hypocracy, the Florida govt has rules drug testing govt employees unconstitutional, stating it's violating the right of unreasonable search and seizure.

MIAMI (AP) - A Miami federal judge has declared that Gov. Rick Scott's order requiring drug testing for state workers is unconstitutional.

U.S. District Judge Ursula Ungaro ruled Thursday that blanket testing of some 85,000 workers violates the Fourth Amendment ban on unreasonable searches and seizures.

yet, at the very same time....

Required drug tests for people seeking welfare benefits ended up costing taxpayers more than it saved and failed to curb the number of prospective applicants, data used against the state in an ongoing legal battle shows.

The findings — that only 108 of the 4,086 people who took a drug test failed — are additional ammunition for the American Civil Liberties Union of Florida, which sued the state and won a temporary ban on the drug-testing program in October, said ACLU spokesman Derek Newton.

Attorneys for the state immediately appealed the ban, and will face off against the ACLU again at the 11th Circuit Court in Atlanta and the U.S. District Court in Orlando in coming months.

Umm, duh. Poor people can't afford drugs.

Here we have the same people saying that govt employees are protected by the constitution, but the people aren't? What a crock of shit!

Government Statute Citizens have no rights, but are fictitious persons, created by common interest for the public trust.

This is more of their bullshit, trying to merge the corporate person (public official) into the same definition of a "living" person.

Of course in doing so that fancifully and irresponsibly change the meanings of Maxims of Law.

Cops and politicians should be drug tested.

But apparently, it's a violation of their rights.

I believe testing is a violation of my rights.

Bring this ruling to the private sector and all shall be well. Everyone who says "I get tested, so should they" are complete retards. Your line of thought should be "suspicionless drug testing is a violation of my constitutional rights. Nobody should have to take suspicionless drug tests"

For-cause, post-accident, and pre-employment tests are different, though. I see nothing wrong with them.
