    Default Small gov tales of fl morons

    Rookie gov has welfare folks testing. 2.5 percent tested positive while 9 percent of the gen population use drugs. What a bunch of education hating republicans.
    Chris: I volunteered. I dropped out of college, told 'em I wanted the infantry, combat, Vietnam.
    Crawford: You volunteered for this shit, man?
    C Believe that?
    K You's a crazy fucker, giving up college?
    C Didn't make much sense, I wasn't learning anything
    k Oh, I see, what we got here is a crusader.
    C Sounds like it.
    K Shiiit, you gotta be rich in the first place to think like that. Ever'body know, the poor are always being fucked over by the rich. Always have, always will.

    one more example of how people seem forced to surrender their rights in order to get help from their government.

    the only state employees that should be required to undergo mandatory drug testing are those with badges and arrest powers.

    Why is that?

    Don't other state employees operate machinery, interface with children and engage in other activities that could compromise public safety if they are impaired?

    every single person out in the world has the potential to compromise public safety, whether they work in the private sector or public sector. That is not the same as someone with a badge that can kill you and be sanctioned with qualified immunity.

    Are you saying that a law enforcement officer who kills someone on duty is immune from prosecution, but one that is stoned isn't?

    for the most part, yes. only in extremely rare circumstances is a law enforcement officer charged with any crime if someone dies by his hand while on duty.

    and adding on to this, there are very few policies in effect to force an LEO to undergo any testing after an excessive force incident. It also should include steroid testing at scheduled intervals.

    Really? Can you substantiate these claims with factual evidence?

    Because in just one jurisdiction, I found the opposite to be true:

    "Compelled intoxicant testing can be conducted if there are indications of possible intoxication and legal standards are met."


    http://www.denverda.org/News_Release...20Protocol.pdf

    And when I ran this search, I got a lot of results that indicate that police do face charges in shooting cases.

    And why should a test you regard as invasive be mandatory for law enforcement officers but not aircraft operators?

    just because it CAN be, doesn't mean it's GOING to be. i've posted numerous articles on this forum about police officers causing accidents ON DUTY where it was later determined that there was evidence that the officer might have been drunk, but on scene fellow officers covered it up. Again, i've posted numerous articles on incidents like this. don't pretend that i haven't.

    whats the date on this policy? oh, 2011????? what was it before?

    so because a FEW are actually 'arrested', that would mean that no officer escapes being charged?

    we have government agents that are aircraft operators?

    Doesn't mean it's not going to be, either, does it? If you have evidence to the contrary, post it.

    Numerous articles that police officers "might have been drunk", eh? If you have evidence that officers have perjured themselves and weren't prosecuted, you duty as a citizen is clear. If you don't, you're blowing smoke. Numerous doesn't mean anything, execept numerous.

    I don't know. Why don't you find out and tell me?

    Can you cite the ratio of guilty officers vs those arrested and charged? Yes, or no?

    Probably, but that's not what I said. The discussion was about drug testing Florida state employees before you got all twisted with your favorite bugaboo.

    We definitely have state employees who operate aircraft in the line of duty, yet you only want LEOs tested. What's up with that?
