What were they thinking?

I tried to think of something witty for this post, but I’m coming up empty.

A 15 year old, 70 pound high school student was tackled by not one, not two, but three campus security officers.

Why?

Her school has a no cellphone policy and she was using her cellphone.

Sam Houston High School in Texas takes its “no cell phones in class” policy seriously. The footage above shows 15-year-old, 70-lb sophomore Ixel Perez screaming and crying as three campus cops tackle her to the ground to get her phone. One of them puts his knee on the side of her head.

How do you say to yourself “Me and my buddies better tackle this 15 year old girl to get her to stop using her cellphone at school”?  What the hell goes through the mind of people like this?
