First Rule of ‘Fight Club’—Fight Back
Overturning a Court of Appeals ruling, a unanimous court held that a Henry County student expelled for fighting had a right to argue self-defense before school officials kicked her out under the school’s “zero-tolerance” policy.
Writing for the court, Justice Robert Benham said, “[s]imply because a student engages in a fight does not establish the student has violated a disciplinary rule prohibiting the ‘physical abuse’ of others.” |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
