    In reply to Drugloo Toilet Prevents Prison Guards From Whipping Out The Latex Gloves
    While I can see how it would eliminate the need for guards to have to manually go through someone's poop to remove the evidence, surely in order to find the drugs in the first place, you'd have to shove your hand up their bottom, in which case you might as well grab it while you're in there.
    Unless you give everyone that you suspected might possibly have drugs a really strong laxative and make them sit around for 10 minutes before directing them to the Giant Steel Toilet Of Doom pictured above,(Seriously, it doesn't even have a seat!) I can't see how this could possibly be more cost effective than telling the guards to wrap up, dive in and stop complaining.

    This thing reminds me of an electric chair, which somehow seems appropriate given where it's being used.

    @Jrsy Devil's Advocate®: Be careful what you say....every man women and child is one move away from being locked up for a significant amount of time. Im sure your view would change if you made the wrong move one day. Im and ex C/O...plenty guys had that same opinion until they were sentanced to a few years.

    @jokool89: If I was locked in a cell with this hellish toilet I'd still think it looks like an electric chair.

    Not complaining; great idea, really.

    But the lip gloss doesn't really do anything then? It just happens to be sold with the test strips?

    @Geisrud: Yeah, that's what I got out of it too. At first I thought maybe the lip stick itself would change color or at least the strips would be kept rolled inside of applicator or something.

    But still, good idea nonetheless.

    Since it doesn't detect rufies and it doesn't work with certain drinks, I wonder about its effectiveness. To me this is like other self defense tools (tasers, pepper sprays, etc.), its a tool in a larger aresenal, not a cure-all. It should be supplemented with other means (e.g. monitoring your drink, holding it from the top so your hand covers it when holding, etc.). What saddens me the most is that there's a market for this because its become so common. I once heard a guy joking with his buddies about trying this with a girl and it took everything I had not to go over to him and punch him dead in the face.

    @ARP: Rufies get a bad rap. They aren't the date rape drug. GHB is the date rape drug. Rufies can make you forget a night, but really it's just like being really drunk. People take rufies as a party drug so they can spend less on drinks during the night.

    Um, theres a problem with this, GHB and Ketamine aren't used as date rape drugs, that was just media noise.

    "You cannot use the test with wine, most fruit juices, and the test does not detect Rohypnol" - Isn't rohypnol the main one?

    "The Guardian and the Channel 4 programme Dispatches recently interviewed 750 people in 16 cities over a period of two days. One in four women of club and pub-going age surveyed said that they had had their drinks spiked." - 25% of women have had their drinks spiked?!

    from what I understand the strip doesn't detect rohypnol, so it's kind of useless.

    But they made the pills with dye in them now so they don't dissolve clear.

    Or so I've heard.

    It's really unfortunate that this is a good idea. After seeing what happens at College parties however I know that stuff like this is needed.

    What a sad world we live in when something like this is even necessary. I guess if you have NO personality, charm or sex appeal then you spike a drink. Then, as far as I am concerned, you get what you deserve when someone beats the living hell out of you for it.

    @Curves: Once you use these strips and catch a potential date rapist, the appropriate punishment would be to make them take the drug and let them spend a few nights in jail being on this stuff. When they sober up, they'll wish they'd never even considered it when can't sit properly anymore.
