Six more years and all three of my kids will have graduated from high school and will be forever out of the clutches of the idiots who run them.

The zero tolerance "thinking" reminds me of hoa "thinking":

We have rules that apply to everyone. The rules exist for your own good. We must enforce the rules at every possible opportunity, no matter how ridiculous. If you didn't like the rules, you shouldn't have chosen to attend our school/live in our community.
