In the news not too long ago, a middle school student - a 14 year old boy, to be precise - was suspended from Arizona Schools because of a drawing he produced even though sitting in class. No teacher wants to uncover his or her student doodling, but need to admit that not all students is going to be as enamored of their subject as the teacher is.

The Arizona Schools district the boy attends features a zero tolerance policy concerning weapons; this consists of drawing them, or even writing about them. In response to the Columbine massacre in 1999, most Arizona Schools have some version of such a policy in spot. (About 96% of all Arizona Schools possess a zero-tolerance policy.)
