In other news, any teacher or administrator caught in possession of a working brain will be prosecuted for theft, since it obviously belongs to someone else.

To be fair, I believe most of these asinine "zero tolerance" policies have been enacted out of fear of lawsuits. You can bet the school would find themselves on the defensive should a kid get stabbed in the eye with a sharpened pencil.

Fear of litigation, job loss and budget-breaking settlements has taken the practice of "erring on the side of caution" to absurd levels.
