It doesn't matter what the issue is with his girlfriend, he has no legitimate excuse because he didn't pick up the phone.

Make a damn phone call BEFORE you are a no show. That's how the rest of the world works.

Too much regulation. So what if he didn't make a phone call? S.hit happens. Let me ask this...are these people in power employing this guy and paying his taxes? If not, unless he kills another horse or jockey why should anyone care if he's on drugs?

I'll tell you why...because there's too many people on earth. The only jobs that can keep the masses employed are jobs where you're controlling, taxing, ruining the lives of others. We don't make anything these days...instead we create jobs that do nothing but keep a moron fed and the people they deal with absolutely miserable and domesticated.

Mind your own god-damned business. You can ride horses and be coked up. Not everyone responds the same to drugs. F.uck Nancy Reagan. If owners, trainers or whoever wants to hire this guy then it's their choice.

i agree actually. i don't get why employers have the 'right' to test anyone. it's not exactly constitutional.

His employers arent testing him, the state which grants his professional license is. In his case he has a conditional license so he is held to a different standard.

I have a hard time believing that you are going to get much support for letting someone who is impared ride a horse going 40 mph. This is different than testing a stockboy at Wal-Mart for weed.

so, you're suggesting our bill of rights doesn't apply if a state or local, or private entity tries to trample on our rights? free speech? freedom from illegal search and seizure, etc, etc? i don't think that's quite correct.
