Zero-Tolerance Strikes Again

More idiotic disciples of the zero-tolerance P.C. gestapo movement working diligently, as usual, to save us from ourselves.

Terrell Jones, a student in Gwinnett County's Grayson High School, was weeded out of a classroom by a school administrator because he wore a shirt that read: "Hempstead, NY 516," a reference to the Long Island town and its telephone area code.

According to Jones' family, which moved from Hempstead to the Atlanta suburb, the school thought the shirt referred to marijuana. Jones wasn't allowed to return to class until he persuaded school officials to search the Internet for the town name.

No word on whether shirts reading "Grayson High" will be allowed, given their blatant drug use reference.
