Yeah, yeah, yeah, "coerced", eh? All of the sudden the Libertarians are unable to simply say no, to resist flowing with the lemmings, there backbone to act independently simply dissolved? I kinda doubt that.

No, Diddle. Not suprisingly, you just don't get it.

You are punishing children for standing up for their rights. You force kids to choose between their right to privacy and their future (university, career, etc.).

This decision effectively punishes kids for exercising their right to privacy.

"Oh, sure, you have a right to privacy, but if you don't piss when we say to, you have to be a hermit, walk to school, have no social activity within or associated with the school, or basically do anything that a normal teenager does."

Great--these are kids, not adults. Tell a teenager piss in a cup or quit the chemistry club, that is coercion. Moreover, tell them to piss in a cup or not drive to school, that's coercion. Tell them piss in a cup for face the reality of not getting into a quality institution of higher learning, that is DEFINITELY coercion. It's Big Government in the WORST way.
