In that case, it was determined to have violated the Fourth Amendment because it was a warrant-less search of a persons body without justification, and if Florida tried to require testing, it would probably face the same fate." |

You want unemployment aid? Well you have to be ready for a job, this includes not being stoned. |

Its actually a pretty big deal - seeing as drugs are illegal though, on the legal side of things makes a little sense.
Only problematic on false positives, and "area exposure"
eg. if you were exposed to a drug. (or spiked)
Also THE COST.. it'd cost a lot of money to do the tests. | spiked.. lol does this still happen? i doubt iv heard of anybody geting teh date rape drug and have not heard about it in the news in AGES |

Unemployment aid is a favour, not a right. |

4th amendment right states that you don't have to subject yourself to warrant less searches.
I'm all for them testing people if they can get a judge to issue a warrant, but that usually requires justification. Being unemployed and applying for unemployment isn't a good reason. |

unemployment law can be changed to grant this aid only those who are willing for random tests... and i guess that's the case with this new law.
It's not like unemployment aid is a constitutionnal right and then they force you to a test...
anyways, as if I care, i'm just trying to annoy you potheads. |
