Zero Tolerance

From cnn.com.

A 14-year-old student disciplined for writing a fictional account of a student who falls asleep in class and dreams of killing a teacher is moving to another school, her father told CNN Thursday

Zero tolerance is basically saying "We are far too stupid to try to figure out what is right and what is wrong so anybody who goes near a grey area will pay the consequences". I am starting to get sick of these stories where students are being arrested or expelled because of doing a little creative writing. That is all it boils down to. There is nothing wrong with writing about anything, no matter how horrible it is. Writing about someone killing a teacher DOES NOT MEAN THAT SHE IS GOING TO KILL ANYONE!!!!
