Trump Appointee Demands Physical Punishments for Schoolkids: ‘We Gotta Get the Paddle Back’
Former NFL player Jack Brewer wildly argued that it would help tackle crime.
Touching kids is just a thing with these guys isn't it?
Release the Trump Epstein Files!!!
Jesus fucking christ.
Anyone semi-educated would know that this would just create more criminals. Ones who view corporal punishment as okay in the home, AKA domestic abusers.
That on top of the fact that it's just plain wrong and cruel.
"I got beat and I turned out fine" people when you point out that growing up to be someone that thinks beating children is okay means they did not turn out fine, lol.
"turned out fine" can't cum unless he's choking someone.
My dad would give me or my siblings a belting when we had misbehaved.
Not so bad there was a lasting bruise or whatever but I feel like I remember each occasion.
My parents weren't really great parents, but I wouldn't describe them as abusive. They didn't punish us out of anger. Physical punishments were one of the few tools they had.
Other's are welcome to call them abusive but to me it could better be described as ineptitude.
Now having kids myself there's just no way I would ever do that. My kids are only 2 so not really old enough to have meaningful conversations but I feel like most of the punishments I received were really due to some kind of misunderstanding - perhaps more accurately me not understanding.
The freaks and weirdos are always up to the crazy ideas.
Just WHY was it that Walz was reeled in on pointing this kind of thing out? The entire conservative movement and the Republican Party is just chock full of weird people.
imo, 'weird' wasn't the correct word, nor was it strong enough. not sure there is even one single word, 'evil' is closer but still doesn't quite get all the way there.

That's the thing, though: against regular people, it's the mildest of insults if it's even an insult at all.
Against fascists, thought, it's DEVASTATINGLY effective and here's why:
Fascist movements depend on being absolutely convinced that they're the only sane and normal ones in a world gone mad because everyone else is an immoral weirdo. That's how they justify all of their atrocities, and it's what their entire shared identity is about.
When you point out what weirdos their leaders are, that makes them doubt EVERYTHING about them. After all, in their world view, all weirdos are insane and immoral and all righteous people are normal.
Parents get mad at teachers for asking students not to use their phones in class. You hit their kid and you're going to get shot.
I would have hit a teacher back but x10 because I was a kid and kids are sociopaths. I remembered fistfighting my stepdad in the front yard in middle school. I did not win.
I used to teach K-8 PE. I remember one day a student in 2nd grade told me how proud of himself he was because he got into a fist fight with his dad in the street and he didn't cry.
Either that Dad is a pussy, or that kid is tough as nails.
I was threatened with this once. Told the principal that it would take more than him to do it. And I meant that. He called my dad. Told him I threatened him. Dad laughed in his face and told him to try me on, then he hung up.
Fuck these fascists. Anyone vile enough to use their position of authority to enact violence against children should be thrown into a cold cell. Fuck anyone enabling this.
Pssst. All conservatives are enabling this type of behavior. Because all conservatives are traitors to the U.S.A. and a danger to its children.
Violence begets violence. Getting beat as a child didn't make me peaceful in any way. Just what you would expect from some useless sports dipshit.
They really love children huh.
Hey Q-anon, remember that time you thought kids were being harmed and you were so angry that you invaded pizza places and took hostages in random places across America? Hello? You guys still out there?
I mean the Republican party is already onboard with child labor and raping children. Should we be surprised that they also want to beat them?
I'd be more surprised if they didn't.
How about we punish real criminals first? I dunno, maybe frauds, felons, and rapists would be a good start.
Also people who beat children.
As someone who shows up ARMED WITH GUNS to Drag Shows to Protect The Children I FULLY SUPPORT Jeffrey Epstein's Best Friend FORCING Teachers to Physically Touch their 6 year old students!
They're so weak they gotta threaten children
Just waiting for them to push this for public schools only. After all, only "the poors" would send their kids to public schools.
Pedophile endorses spanking kids in public. Shocker.
You touch my kids and I'll murder you. I don't even care
There's virtual reality now. If you realy need to beat children, do it there.
Where I went to middle school/high school my parents had to sign something that opted OUT of getting a paddle used on us for punishment, either on the hands or butt. One of the gym teachers constantly brought it up and would volunteer to spank kids this way.
The troubled teen school I was sent to in the mid naughts had and has parents sign a form which releases them from liability if a kid gets injured. They’ve beaten the shit out of kids for things like asking to go to the bathroom, or having religious amulets.
They'll just get guns.. they already have guns.
Wonder if that man ever took a pedagogy / andragogy class. I'd wager the answer is : no.
I wonder if this guy has ever tried drinking raw milk. I hear it does wonders for the body.
Sounds like they're trying to sell weapons to kids.
Wait, we could balance the budget!
Make Schools BDSM Again.
