I definitely agree that the Zero Tolerance system made this situation significantly worse than it should have been. I'm just not sure that any student with some sort of electronic board in their backpack would be treated the same way. See my above post about the school determining that Ahmed had malicious intents. If the letter of the Zero Tolerance law is "if you suspect something to be a bomb, you must report it to the police", then the school still suspected him of malicious intent.
