Schools should have the power to pat, search, or drug test any student at any random time.

==Dropped Arguments==My opponent failed to rebudle these following arguments, which means that they concede to it.1) Abuse by teachers: With this right, teachers with personal vendettas against students will seize this right and pat, search, or drug test a student and try to cause as much damage as possible. I've already explained about how these searches can cause embarrassment and promote bullying. I've also talked about how teachers can single out and publicly accuse someone. Con does try to argue against this, but con's arguments are flawed. I will explain more about how their arguments against me are false and invalid and why my contentions on the negative effects that searches cause on students still stand.2) Isolation: Con fails to address this completely, and doesn't even mention this in his rebuttal. He completely ignores the fact that searches can destroy a student's sense of privacy and security, which only increases isolation and psychological problems. Why does this matter? Trauma that occurs at school can live with a student forever, and increase the chances of them becoming violent criminals. School shootings happen due to students that are fed up with bullying and similar aggressive acts. Almost all of these shooters have psychological problems and experience bullying of some sort. ==Rebuttals==Pro says. .. "Firstly, in a school environment privacy is only limited to:Bodily privacy (Private parts)andMental and Emotional privacy (Do not have to answer questions nor do you have to support any religion or group)"1) I'm personally confused by what Pro is driving at when he/she makes this kind of argument. How can you "pat" someone without violating some bodily privacy? The effectiveness of searches would be ****, since students can simply hide whatever they are concealing in "private areas. " Furthermore, Pro goes on to say that students ". .. Do not have to answer questions. .. " This I find failing to make any logical sense. School officials are allowed to search, pat, and drug test students, but they are not allowed to question them? I ask PRO to clarify what their stance is, and how, in any way, does stating what privacy students have support their side? However. .. If they are saying that students should not be given bodily privacy nor mental/emotion privacy. .. .Pro is denying any students the Fourth Amendment, and even the most basic rights. The Supreme Court requires officials to have somewhere around a moderate chance of finding evidence of wrongdoing or criminal activities. For example. .. According to . http://www.outsidethebeltway.com......The Supreme Court found that Arizona school officials went too far in strip-searching a 13-year-old student who they believed might have provided ibuprofen to another student. Given the intrusiveness and of the search and the relatively low threat posed, the search was unreasonable and a violation of the Fourth Amendment. Pro said in their second argument that, "Embarrassment and Singling out are worthless because embarrassment happens even when an adult gets searched and it is just a feeling of the person, it will not effect the search or test in anyway. Race is not applicable because there will always be racial profiling whether it is in schools, with it without a permit, or even with a 7 yr old boy or a 27 yr old man. If the teacher feels that person should be searches they get searched. It shouldn't matter of their race. " However i find that this argument is also flawed.1)Even if adults get embarrassed somewhat. .. We MUST consider and listen to the voices and opinions of students. Just because some people can tolerate being searched, that does not justify it.2)Furthermore, they are not seeing the true meaning of my argument. I am trying to show that when students are subjected to search, they experiance negative emotions and feeling. Teachers can purposely abuse this in order to embarrass, promote bullying, and psychologically destroy students that they dislike. Is this fair for the students? Is this healthy for school environments? 3) And Pro continues to explain why searches will not be affected by race. However, my arguments were about how racism will increase through searches. These arguments are completely different, and pro, once again, confuses my arguments. I said that racist teachers can use their powers and emotionally devastate students, just because of their race. Do racist teachers not exist? Is this not simply more severe racism? 4) Pro says that ". .If the teacher feels that person should be searches they get searched. " However. .. Is this truely justifiable? Consider my previous example. Strip searching a 13-year-old even though the threat was so low? This can be compared to shooting a man for explicit language. The response was simply too drastic and unreasonable. There are standerd procedures. ==New Arguments==**Note: I'm pressed for time. .. so i'll only have one new contention to present. .. .1) Unpopularity: Student searches are already unpopular enough, with parents willing to sue if their children complain enough. By giving this right to schools, we are simply asking for challenges made by students and their parents. Do we truely want this to happen? Schools exist for students and they should listen to the students. The degradation and loss of dignity that can occur through searches simply will bring too much unpopularity. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------I await my opponents response. :D!
