ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY IS OBVIOUSLY OUT OF CONTROL

Chalk up another victory for the zero-tolerance idiots. Amanda Stiles 
committed the terrible crime of taking some Advil to school, and now must 
pay for that mistake by having her life put in upheaval, getting booted 
from school. This is sheer and utter lunacy. The good citizens of 
Shreveport-Bossier City, and of the state, need to let their legislators 
know that this nonsense must come to an end and that situations like this 
need to be judged on the facts of the case, and not under a nonsensical 
standard of zero tolerance.
