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.
