School to test for students' weekend drinking

Lest you think I've been overreacting of late against perceived threats to our liberty, I offer the following tale.

How long before we institute a urine test for sexual activity, punishing the unmarried for their fornications? It'd sure fit right in with "abstinence only" sex-ed classes, eh?

So am I really making mountains out of molehills? Draw your own conclusions.

Some teenagers who drink over the weekend could be in big trouble come Monday morning: A New Jersey school district plans to institute random urine tests capable of detecting whether alcohol was consumed up to 80 hours earlier.
