'''Public school tyranny''' consists of [[liberal]] administrators engaging in exaggerated control and punishment of children, perhaps to make the administrators feel powerful. For example, a 12-year-old Hispanic girl in [[Queens, NY]] was removed from school in handcuffs after doodling on her desk. <ref>[http://www.nydailynews.com/ny_local/education/2010/02/05/2010-02-05_cuffed_for_doodling_on_a_desk.html "Cuffed For Doodling On a Desk"; ''New York Daily News'']</ref> The principal reportedly told the schoolgirl's mother that policy required the arrest. The principal's boss said the principal was "mistaken". <ref>[http://www.nydailynews.com/ny_local/education/2010/02/06/2010-02-06_cuffed_student_wont_draw_suspension.html "Cuffed Student Won't Draw Suspension"; ''New York Daily News'']</ref>

Liberals at federal and state agencies require public schools to enforce zero-tolerence policies restricting students' and sometimes even staff members' right to property and the right to bear arms. Under these [[totalitarian]] decrees, good faith students, staff, and visitors are often reprimanded for having simple over the counter medications, virtually anything that could plausibly be used as a weapon (could be merely a box cutter, screw driver, or [[Boy Scouts of America]] issued pocket knife), anything that resembles a weapon (may be as simple as a squirt gun), and even simple electronic devices on campus. It is common for these rules to apply to anything stored in vehicles parked in school parking lots.
