Public school tyranny consists of liberal public school 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.[1] The principal reportedly told the schoolgirl's mother that policy required the arrest. The principal's boss said the principal was "mistaken".[2]
It is frequently employed to prevent free-thinking students from expressing views at variance with liberal orthodoxies.
