Republican Sponsor Of Bill To Require Drug Testing For Georgia Welfare Recipients Arrested For DUI
By Judd Legum
A Georgia Republican who wants all welfare reciepients subject to drug tests failed one himself after he ran a red light on Friday morning. The Atlanta Journal Constiution has the story on State Rep. Kip Smith (R):
Smith, whose given name is John Andrew Smith, first told the officer he had not consumed any alcoholic beverages.
“I asked him again, and he stated he had consumed a single beer at Hal’s. …”
Smith is a sponsor of Georgia House Bill 464, which would “require random drug testing” for citizens on public assistance. In response to Smith’s legislation, State Rep. Scott Holcomb introduced a bill last month that would require all state lawmakers to be subject to random drug testing.
Random drug tests for reciepents of public assistance are very likely to be found unconsitutional.

if, HAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!
Now I forgot what I was gonna say.
Three gets you two he uses the “But but but beer isn’t a drug!” defense. And of course, he’ll hint that he only wants a certain type (nudge nudge) of person drug tested. You know, those lazy, shiftless ones.
Obviously a person of bad choices…the first, as an adult, choosing to go by the name Kip.
Unfortunately, living in the not so great state I can assure you this is just the very tip of the ice berg… it is much, much worse than it appears.
well, at least it wasnt a sex crime – those are getting so old by now.
“Kip.” Lamest name since “Scooter.”
The Urban Dictionary’s third definition for Kip is “the act of calling the cops on a party you were not invited to.”
Seems fitting, no?
