Corporeal Punishment
Anyone in my generation knows
what happened to corporeal punishment in the schools following World War II, and especially so following the infamous
“Civil Rights Acts,” which took away the rights of parents and children to any
kind of quality education.
Anyone in my generation was
raised in the public school system in
the 1920’s and 30’s. We knew what the
major problems were and didn’t need to
be told, even though they have been
documented and have appeared in print.
The major problems were: short cutting
in the lunch lines, running in the
hallways, chewing gum, loitering, and
too much talk in the classroom.
Following the Civil Rights Acts of 1964, where the schools were converted into
veritable jungles, the problems became
drugs, rape, assault, murder, and
bombing. Many schools have installed
security checks to keep guns out of the schools where the kids have been forced to defend themselves against the
Democratic senators and Federal judges
who passed the Civil Rights Act. These “Pablum Pukes” (as Morton Downey Jr.
calls them) profess to have “bleeding
hearts” about the poor little black
children that have no “quality
education.” Under the guise of doing
good–all kingdom-builders are bloody
killers, and do-gooders at the same
time–they forced the children together in a jungle environment where murder,
rape, arson, robbery, assault, and
bombing are the “contemporary
lifestyles” of the great new “Pepsi
generation.” Of course with this, there had to be the complete abandonment of
corporeal punishment. Punishment came
under the heading of what was called
“child abuse” by the Pablum Pukes, and
what it meant was, anybody could back
them up if they were the right color.
Now, we read in a Montgomery
Advertiser, Sunday, September 25, 1988, that area school officials “defend the
need to paddle unruly pupils.” Imagine that after thirty years of DukakisKennedy
-garbage dumpster-do-goodism that
has turned the Federal schools system
into a nightmare! Speaking up for the
punishment of the unruly student were a number of concerned parents and laymen. But speaking against corporeal
punishment was good ole “Reverend”
Willie Smith, a member of “Concerned
Parents of Montgomery Schools.” (Willie Smith is a black Baptist minister, like Jesse Jackson and Martin Luther King
Jr.) In order to keep crime at the
maximum rate in the schools, Willie
Smith says, “A person can take a stick
and beat his dog, and they will arrest
him for cruelty to an animal, but a
teacher can hit a child with a stick and they call it corporeal punishment.” The black minister said he feels that
corporeal punishment should be replaced with in-house suspensions, work details, and counseling sessions. Out of school, of course, you give the “unruly pupil”
time in the “slammer” because the
“unruly pupils” Willie Smith is
referring to are students that carry
sharpened pencils and screwdrivers and
knives to extort lunch money from
students in the bathroom and beat up
students in the hallway who won’t let
them cheat off their examination notes. Out in the world this is called “assault and battery.”
For complete abolishment of any kind of whipping, spanking, or paddling is Dr. Guy Renfro, a Montgomery clinical psychologist of the same “ilk and kin”
as the Pablum Pukes who got rid of
capital punishment for murder. Dr.
Renfro said, “I think corporeal
punishment as a form of discipline in
the school should be abolished. In
terms of research that I examined, it is not as effective as positive
reinforcement. It can harm students
physically and emotionally,” he said,
“and can lead to more behavior problems later on because of the anger over the
punishment.” Dr. Renfro said, “It is
important that we teach students how to solve problems and how to coper with
them. Teachers should reinforce
positive behavior.”
And how is this done?
Dr. Renfro hasn’t got the
foggiest idea how it is done.
How could it be done in the
schools system when the Justice
Department backs up the murderers and
robbers and rapists? It can’t be done! How do you “reinforce” positive behavior in an African jungle culture where
positive behavior is cheating, stealing, and lying? Dr. Renfro doesn’t say.
They never do. They can’t. They are
the world’s greatest mutes that ever
lived.
