ATLANTA - Police in Georgia handcuffed a kindergartner with her arms behind her back after the girl threw a tantrum, and the police chief defended the action as a safety measure.  

Why didn't you just taser her?

The girl’s family demanded Tuesday that their central Georgia city change policy so that other children aren’t treated the same way. They say the child was shaken up by the ordeal.

While it is unusual to see a young child handcuffed in school, it is not unheard of. School officials around the nation have wrestled with the issue of when it is appropriate to call police on a student.

Salecia Johnson, 6, was accused of tearing items off the walls and throwing books and toys in an outburst Friday at Creekside Elementary School in Milledgeville, according to a police report....  

The cops couldn't subdue a six-year-old? They seem pretty good at whaling away on adults sometmes, so WTF?

Just remember, kids, school is about conformity, indoctrination, and inculcation, not ejerkashun.

So no acting out, 'kay?
