Reply #51: so why don't they install tracking devices in all employee's cars to see if they speed?

and fire them for breaking the speed limit?

the reason they don't is because they, and you, buy into the propaganda about cannabis. the law is wrong, racist and not supportable based upon scientific evidence.

of course, if you had lived in the south and had fallen in love and married a person from another race when miscegenation laws where in place, employees could fire you for that reason, too. so, would you side with the employer in that situation as well?

in other words, I'm just asking how much of a toady stance is acceptable to you.

just because something is law doesn't mean it's right. laws have been made for the wrong reason far too often in this nation.

the only reason to have drug tests is to check for job performance. anything else is a violation of someone's right to privacy.

and, someone could take a vacation to Portugal, for example, where it is legal to ingest cannabis. they could then return to the job and, a month after vacation, have to submit to a drug test that indicates metabolites in urine (which actually indicate that someone isn't high - metabolites are byproducts of cannabis that are stored in fatty tissue.)

so, an employer has a right to tell an employee how he or she may spend vacation time if that person is doing something legal in that other state or nation?
