Violence: the new solution to violence
Bob McCoskrie, the spokesman for lobby group Family First, claimed violent incidents in secondary schools this week were proof of a need for stricter punishments. He claimed that the removal of corporal punishment had resulted in "more dangerous" schools that were tolerating an unacceptable level of violence and offensive behaviour
Mr McCoskrie said that violence, indecent assaults and serious and sexual assaults would only continue if more "effective" punishment was not carried out in schools.
The question is, would you want Mr McCoskrie to teach your children? His enthusiasm for beating kids, at home and at school, seems just a little suspicious. He also has both correlation/causation issues and syntactical challenges. Would a good thrashing help?

Where is your common sense. So you think that the current situation is acceptable, with kids stabbing teachers in schools, and the schools too scared to deal with them properly? Bob is right, you are wrong. Lefties love chaos.
Dear wee unthinking Anonymous (why dont you people actually use your names?) Beating kids makes for much more angry kids who will in turn use more violence against others...Bob McCosk might be better after a good thrashing though - so much less pressure to vent...
More to the point, does Mr McCoskrie back that naughty SM electoral option that Messrs Shirtcliffe et al are proposing...?

Anonymous (the first one), I agree entirely. What are we letting kids get away with in the classroom? If I had my way, we'd bring back capital punishment in schools. If the price of well-behaved children is firing squads at lunchtime, then so be it.
