I deeply love American schools. You can take an AK-47 in to butcher your entire class but you can’t have a sneaky pre-prom drink. All together now “Sweeeeeeeeeet land of liberty..” 

Students at McGill-Toolen Catholic High School will have to do more than buy a ticket to get into the Coming Home dance next month. Some or all of the 700 students expected to attend the dance will be asked to breathe into a breathalyzer to determine whether they have been drinking alcohol.
