KIDS' DIGNITY TAKEN AWAY

I am very disappointed in the failure of our Supreme Court to uphold the 4th
Amendment of the Constitution ("Supreme Court says it's OK to drug test
students," June 27). No longer can we say "Innocent until proven guilty."
Now our children must face random searches of their bodily fluids as a part
of their education!

By submitting kids to demeaning, dignity-robbing drug tests, we are doing
far more harm than good.
