Zero Tolerance policies are a good thing because even though it creates a few outrageous punishments, it makes the other 99% of the punishments easier to defend.

What happens when somebody notices that 90% of the kids being expelled for drug violations are black? You can't say "most of the kids that cause drug-related problems at school are black" because it violates the left's religious beliefs. Without the ability to say "we expel all students that are found violating the drug policy without question" the school will spend its life either in court fighting against charges of discrimination or it will find itself not expelling students that it should to avoid problems.
