"Zero Tolerance Plague"

If you don’t believe “zero tolerance” is bad, look at this: an innocent  student wanting to become a fireman and who IS a “medic,” was arrested, his car searched illegally, and he was kept in jail for 13 days without charges. All on the strength of a “university official’s” BELIEF that, considering what he was studying, he MIGHT have a weapon in his car. He did. A knife he used in his paramedic work. But the cops used it as an excuse to arrest and imprison him, costing him his career. If he’s convicted of a weapons charge, he can NEVER be a fireman OR a paramedic. All because of the “suspicion” of a “university official” and a bunch of stupid cops. (Truth and Action)
