zero tolerance means zero common sense
zero Tolerance Zero Common Sense

in this mad crazed world
many people are rule obsessed
proclaiming zero tolerance
for this and that infraction of the sacred rules
thinking that this will solve all the problem facing the world

Yes zero tolerance means no common sense

in schools and offices across the land
minor infractions of the rules
are quickly elevated
to major league capitol offenses
violations of the sacred rules
which of course can not be tolerated
not at all as the police state takes over

yes zero tolerance means no common sense

In one incident
a child was arrested
by the full swat team
Her crime
giving a classmate a Tylenol

Yes Zero tolerance means no common sense
