In reply to the discussion: Congresswoman Who Used To Receive Welfare Wants To Drug Test Rich People Who Get Tax Breaks [View all]pennylane100
(3,425 posts)38. I would like to see that the police are drug tested on a regular basis.
Their job allows them to legally kill those that they see as a danger and if they make life and death decisions about the people they kill, it is only logical that they get drug tested to ensure they are drug free.
I have a feeling that steroids play a role in many of the police brutality cases and it seems quite reasonable to make sure they are drug free when deciding who lives and who dies.
