HotD, I believe in discipline. I was raised that way (probably a bit too much on the extreme end), but I believe it set me on a good course.
In today's world, kids get time outs, not spankings. I think that, generally speaking, it's a good thing, but some kids NEED a good spanking.
I equate that to law enforcement. A guy receiving a speeding ticket, parking ticket, etc, should be handled respectfully and sent on their way.
A career criminal, leading cops on a 3 hour tour, placing innocent lives and cops' lives in danger, probably needs a little extra-curricular in order to get the message. He needs more than a time-out.
Earlier I said I was in the minority in my thinking, and you disagreed.
You really believe the majority of US citizens feel the way I do about this?
Anyway I sense that you really dislike my viewpoint on this, however, I understand the way you feel from your standpoint. We just look at it differently.
