I’m in the Army Reserve and been deployed twice and I have to periodically at random pee in the bottle upon demand to prove my innocence until proven otherwise of illegal drug use and it is an unwelcome invasive procedure and so I say to anyone who complains,

SCREW YOU JACK!! IT’S DRUGGIES LIKE YOU WHO FORCE THE REST OF US TO SUBMIT TO MANDATORY DRUG TESTING!

That is a problem associated with institutional hysteria, not a problem associated with liberty.

Actually, you’ve got it just bass-ackwards... which is not totally surprising... many who call themselves “conservative” do that. Yes, I took my share of them over my 22+ years of service, but I never did put the blame for it where it DOESN’T belong. I put the blame for these humiliating and unnecessary personal invasions right square on the Federal government and their utterly unconstitutional laws banning the possession and ingestion of things over which they have ZERO legitimate authority. As you may be aware, the laws outlawing the possession and use of certain substances came about, along with NFA ‘34, not long after Prohibition I was repealed... obviously in an effort to keep all the booze cops on the payroll and further expand FedGov power and reach over the lives of “the little people.” Had no other intent, as the medical testimony at the time (what of it was allowed before being ignored) clearly said that drug usage was NOT a serious medical issue and could be kept under whatever control was deemed MEDICALLY necessary BY the practitioners, NOT the government. In other words, it was not and should not become a legal or criminal issue. But power hungry politicians and bureaucraps (NOT a misspelling) ignored them, in the same manner that legitimate science NOW which does not back up the myth of man-made global warming is ignored... and for the same reasons: There would be no place for more government control in a society which was rational and reasoned in its dealings with these “issues.”

Anyone who complains is automatically a druggie?

Interesting "logic" you have there...
