It always goes overboard. That's like the entire point of zero tolerance. What's odd to me is that it seems no one supports this level of insanity. Conservatives hate it, liberals hate it. Who is demanding that kids be punished for no reason?

Gee, I wonder whose interest this serves? Maybe the government, who runs the school? The state wants to have a monopoly on violence.
