    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.

        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.

    So they want to legalize child abuse… that’s the goal here folks, let’s not pretend it’s not what they want.

    Poor kids are gonna either end up with so many mental scars and have to just live with it since our society is so fucked up that they will probably try to outlaw therapy.

    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.

    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 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.

    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?

    Just waiting for them to push this for public schools only. After all, only “the poors” would send their kids to public schools.
