And yet if the teachers or principal were to raise even the mildest hand to strike these kids it would be a global outcry of screaming outrage over corporal punishment. When we were kids in the 50s, we did something wrong, we paid for it with a rod to the backside. We learned to behave, and not be disrespectful.
Today's kids are raised in a culture that lets them run rampant. I don't how many times I've walked into Target to see kids running wild like they were at a playground, throwing balls around and making a mess.
Spare the rod, spoil the child. And you'll end up with kids who bring machetes and spears and knives to school; weakling sad little runts who cant learn to be responsible human beings and who have such low self esteem they need weaponry to threaten others with. Sick.
What a long comment just to say you would rather beat a child than find out what the actual issue is.
Yes, thank you for being a prime example of someone I'd gladly beat into a pulp just for the sheer pleasure of it.
You think you look tough but everyone just views you as a child.
Exactly right. Especially when you have to carry a weapon to have any sense of self-worth. Pretty sad!
Lmao, keep talking child. I'll call up your mom and tell her to send you to bed so you can hear us going at it in the living room. Go threaten someone who actually gives two shits what you think.
The prime example of the kind of person mentioned about in the beginning right here.
Thanks I like it when people get what I'm saying!
