Black and white policies like this are so dumb
Don't fire employees immediately when they make mistakes, sure. But not firing them at all, even if they are obviously bad for your company? That's just bad management

Definitely one of the most unpleasant jobs* of a manager is having to hold people accountable for their actions in this way, but yeah. Refusing to address it is the coward's move, and it'll destroy your culture.
* Second only to having to field questions about and spin upper management decisions that you also disagree with.
Generally just avoid absolutes as much as possible in your life. In most cases it will benefit you.
