Debra Shirai, a Hawaii public school teacher, speaks out against Gov. Lingle's attempt to subvert the Constitution's 4th amendment protections and randomly drug test Hawaii's educators.
Plenty of jobs have drug testing. It is not a 4th amendment violation. I am a former teacher, and I know plenty of teachers who used drugs -- cocaine, pot, even crack. Test em'! Your arguments is illogical.
You people can say all those negative things but this teacher rocks and if you havent met her youll be sorry for wat you sed..youll jus be nobody 2 me..
Debra, thank you for your tremendous courage and conviction. As an educator, you are espousing the fundamental values that your students--our future citizens--will aspire toward. On the other hand, it is shameful that the governor would politicize this issue for headlines, rather than keep to her oath of office to support and protect the U.S. and Hawaii state constitutions. Mahalo!!
You bum you. We are paying your salery. Take the test or take a hike. You union member douchbag.

oh buddy, pre-employment/random drug testing is most definitely a 4th Amendment violation.
its an unwarranted search and seizure of bodily fluids performed not by government but by an employer with government consent.
you know where there's people willing to "give" up their rights, there are governments willing to "take" them.
SEO, what has drug testing achieved other than discriminating against many hard working US citizens?

Random drug testing punishes the majority for the actions of the minority.
