False equivalency much?
I can't speak for anyone else here but I'm saying a little girl shaving her head in a brave and generous token of solidarity is in no way the same discussion as violence in inner-city schools. To use your scenario as an actual equivalency, kid in inner-city school beats the crap out of a rapist in the act on school grounds. Yes, an exception should be made. I appreciate that the school has a dress code for a reason, but zero tolerance, the point of this thread, doesn't help the child or the school.

Should schools work to diminish/eliminate violence? That doesn't merit discussion. What to do about it? Great. We can have that discussion, but not without talking taxes.
