Maybe its internet hokum, or maybe its real, I dont know.

by my favorite story I ever saw, that outlined how stupid the zero tolerance shit was, and how destructive it was, was a kid in the last year of highschool who moved over the weekend, and apparently a butterknife fell out of one of the boxes, and you could see if you really smashed your face up against the rear driver side window and looked really hard under the drivers seat... Which someone, apparently, did, and got the kid expelled for bringing dangerous weapons to school.

a butterknife isnt even a goddamn danger to butter. Muchless a human being. Especially when its locked in the goddamn car.
