How come the Firefighters are opposed to mandatory randomized drug testing?
It is not a fear of being caught with a dirty drug test. It is because they value their civil rights and are against unlawful searches and seizures. This fundamental protection is guaranteed under our nations constitution and our own state constitution. The ACLU has prepared a briefing paper on why they oppose randomized drug testing in the workplace and it discusses many of the issues why random drug testing does not work and why it violates our guaranteed civil rights.
