[withoutaface]

[Josie]

We used to get birthday smacks. That was year 1 or so.


.... Thinking back, that's really weird.

LOL That's so cute. hahah you must've been really naughty.

Corporal punishment in schools would be scary though. Some teachers would abuse it. I say no

 

[breaking]

not a bad idea, there are some kids who really needs a good beating on their ass.

how's your mum? still nice and dead?

 

[miss-smexy]

And kids would hit back. What's your point? Lol

LOL like this? --->

I would cry!

 

[miss-smexy]

Lol. A guy in the year above me chucked a mallet in woodwork and hit the teacher square in the face.

 

[Iron]

I was frequently corrected at home and abroad and it did me a power of good.

i too was smacked on the buttocks, though this was in year two for me. i told mummy and she didn't care.

You are such a fuckstick.

Please, ask yourself;
'why do I exist?'

I do... Everytime I attend Mensa.
Are you a member as well?

(I don't think there would be many arab members of a High IQ society )

You are such a fuckstick.

I ask myself "why does politik exist?" every time I see you post.

But I experience comfort when I realise that anything you can do I can do better. I can do anything better than you.

As for the topic. This clearly shows Abbot is in no position to be a health minister/minister/MP/human. He likes the idea of S&M (mainly S) against children.

Well that's the thing isn't it

It's not horrible evil youths that are ruining the world with their violence and discipline problems

It's psycho parents who think their kids are special and will sue anyone who looks at them the wrong way

 

[Justin]

I'm not Arab, idiot.

I fucking hate you.

 

[withoutaface]

What's with the massive spazout though, mathmite? Really this isn't half as controversial as a lot of other stuff Abbott says.

But why would you want a teacher/stranger to smack your own kids? =S

Hey, everyone VOTE [1] Liberals.


Ahhh yes.

Remember those good old days?

Back in the good old-days, WE GOT A CANING IN SCHOOL IF WE MISBEHAVED. He wants us to return to this old fashioned conservative school system where students are caned. He's certainly on my side. The whole Liberal party is. Even though Tony Abbot doesn't actually have the power to reintroduce corporal punishment because the law of Assault is a state law, JUST VOTE.. OK? VOTE FOR THE LIBERALS. The fact that he is suggesting it, just.. *IMPLIES* that he's on our side. And, he's a liberal, .. THEREFORE, ALL LIBERALS ARE CONSERVATIVE AND OMFG *ORGASM* I'M VOTING LIBERAL.

That's all that's needed really. The fact that it's never going to be reintroduced is besides the point. He simply needs to say that he *believes* it should be introduced, to get my vote, because his statements reflect that the Liberals are a truly conservative party.. and, i'm proud to be conservative, a fighter against the revolutionary army of political correctness.

He's on our side.

The reason i'm voting for the liberals is because they certainly are more inline with what my disgruntled uneducated marginalized arse believes, than those communists in the Labor party!

What's the problem with kids these days anyway?

Back in my day, kids never misbehaved.

And, you know.. If they did misbehave, they got a caning, so they grew up to be model citizens.. EACH AND EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM.

Not one single person over the age of 25 is bad. Australian society is civil today as a consequence of getting a good arse whipping back in the day. Caning puts kids back in line, you know?

We don't have room for any of this politically correct non-caning stuff that applies in schools these days. There's just no room for it. NO ROOM. It's just... political correctness gone mad, you know?

VOTE [1] LIBERAL.

*yawn*

you people dont even try anymore

disappointing effort, mate.

 

[Justin]

The collective opinions of everyone on this forum tell me ditto about you.

They all love you though. You're supercool. Supercoolarab that is.

What's with the massive spazout though, mathmite? Really this isn't half as controversial as a lot of other stuff Abbott says.

Spazout? I'm fully supporting it. Just like Abbot is. I support this random show of support for corporal punishment which seems to have been pulled out of thin air and backed up with a cruddy example of school girl violence. I'm a 60 year old gullible voter who yearns to return to the class rooms of yesteryear where "real" school children were produced. There was none of this horrible political correctness stuff back then.

OMG an offhand remark made by a minister in response to the violence that occured (?) is actually a calculated plot to gather populist support of people who probably already voted for them

ffs i think you need a good caning

Now instead of reinstating institutionalised child abuse, it seems Abbot is keen to stamp it out!

Abbott wants police to stamp out abuse

Child abuse and violence would not be stamped out in indigenous communities without a strong police presence, says Federal Health Minister Tony Abbott.

Prime Minister John Howard moved to take unprecedented action to stamp out child abuse in indigenous communities, announcing that alcohol and pornography would be banned in those communities in the Northern Territory.

Mr Howard's plan to override territory laws to deal with the crisis came in the wake of a damning report on abuse of indigenous youngsters.

Mr Abbott said he welcomed the plan and that it was time the issue of law and order in indigenous communities was addressed.

"The health services certainly have been improved, but what we need is not just better health services, what we need is law and order in these communities," Mr Abbott told the Nine Network.

"We need to get the police in and the booze out.

"You aren't going to stamp out the child abuse and violence without a strong police presence in these communities.

"That's how it starts, and that's why the most significant aspect of the prime minister's announcement is getting the police into these communities on the ground as soon as possible."

Labor's Julia Gillard said the federal opposition was prepared to work with the government to address the problem.

Ms Gillard said everything must be done to protect children in indigenous communities from abuse.

"We absolutely acknowledge that this has been a shocking tragedy," Ms Gillard said.

"There have been failures at all levels of government.

"This is beyond politics and we should be working together on it."

Ms Gillard said it was a national issue that each state and territory should be addressing.

"I think we should be doing everything at every level of government. Obviously there are constitutional limitations on what the commonwealth can do and the prime minister made that point yesterday," Ms Gillard said.

"The commonwealth has special powers in relation to the Northern Territory which it doesn't have in relation to the states, but we would be saying everybody at all levels of government needs to be cooperating to address this national problem."

If necessary, Mr Howard would recall parliament - which on Thursday night retired for a six-week winter break - to push through laws, including reforms to ensure welfare money was spent on essentials like food, instead of drugs and alcohol.

Mr Abbott said it would take a few weeks to draft the legislation, but he was confident that it would be ready before the end of July.

"That's certainly our hope," he said.

"We have to get the legislation drafted. That's in the hands of the drafting authorities, but once the legislation is there parliament will come back to deal with it."

Sounds like a return to the protectionist days. Can't we just give these people self-determination already?

Corporal punishment is awesome, if this goes through I may have to get an education diploma ..
