Brian Alexander Biography
- Title:
- Journalist and former Contributing Editor for biotechnology at Wired magazine
- Position:
- Not Clearly Pro or Con to the question "Should Performance Enhancing Drugs (Such as Steroids) Be Accepted in Sports?"
- Reasoning:
-
“That the current testing regimen does not work to prevent doping is painfully obvious…
We are faced, then, with a proposal to criminalize sports doping. There would be raids by the feds, trials, and law enforcement resources burned in the pursuit of multi-millionaire druggies. I’m not so sure we have the stomach for this…
This is what American consumers have to ask themselves: If we really want doping to stop, we have to be prepared to see our heroes do hard time. Do we care that much?”
