Since we are talking about simply obtaining a job, not what happens on the job. I dont see where that comment fits. If my pilot goes on a bender when he is off, that is his business, I could care less. My only concern it that he is not impaired at the time he is to preform his duties.
Other then a breathalizer which only detects alcohol I know of no other test that would be immediate, so there would be no way of knowing that your vehicle operator is impaired from any other substance until after the fact.
As far as making leaps, what do you think the talk of a national ID card is about. The word "papers" is a non-literal term for a very real thing, at current we call them:
drivers licenses...... registration...... proof of insurace.....
And you can not deny that!
If you find my comment's about Arabs offensive that is a shame, sarcasm is one of the things I do best :smile: Also, while you may not condone such acts there are those, some which are quite possibly in power, that would.
