Rule that should be broken?

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tyranny

(Other definitions for tyranny that I've seen before include "Cruel government" , "Oppressive government" , "Dominance through threat of punishment and violence" , "Oppression" , "Cruel and arbitrary rule" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
