Via the Daily Caller:

A Minnesota public high school was so committed to obeying its fire drill policy to the exact letter of the law that it forced a female student–dressed only in a swimsuit, and sopping wet–to stand outside in the freezing cold for ten minutes. As a result, she suffered frostbite.

Welcome to the new America - where bureaucrats lack the intelligence, will, or authority to deviate from central planners explicit instructions.
