The sad part is that the reactions here would probably be vastly different if she had been in possession of drugs.

 

I think the initail reaction would say, "thats seems kinda wrong, but I guess it was worth it becuase they caught her". However, I think certain people would still find it very wrong, and would get everyone to agree with them anyway, so the reactin would ultimatly be the same. Thread might have been longer though.

Well the headline wouldn't be "Girl strip-searched and humiliated at local school" or the like.  It would be "Drugs found during strip search at local school."  The focus would be almost entirely on the drugs (even though it's just ibuprofen) and any questions about the discovery would be tangential.  Some people would be upset, sure, but most would just shrug and be glad someone got busted.
