Surprise! Massachusetts pushes for spanking ban

Thank god. It's amazing isn't it? 96% think it should not be illegal, but you come on here and half the Liberals think it should be. Good to know Darlalaling is SOLIDLY in the minority.

"Ain't we got all the fools in town on our side? And ain't that a big enough majority in any town?"

Mark Twain.
 
Get a hold of yourself dano, and stop being so emotionally invested in this board...and memorzing the minute details of the personal lives of dozens people you'll never meet.

I don't have anything to prove to you.


Wait, what shows? I missed this?

And isn't it interesting how you always try to portray something like this as a scourge that is ready to storm America by force? Just a teensy bit of fearmongering, wouldn't you say?

If you want 'minority,' trying pushing your repeal lunch programs/child labor laws/zoning regulation & environmental regulation platform.

Mark Twain.
Twain was referring to leftists, I'm sorry are you under the delusion that Twain was a Liberal?

No man's life, liberty, or property are safe while the legislature is in session. – Mark Twain (1866)

The only difference between a tax man and a taxidermist is that the taxidermist leaves the skin. – Mark Twain

First, God created idiots. That was just for practice. Then He created school boards. – Mark Twain

Don't go around saying the world owes you a living. The world owes you nothing. It was here first. – Mark Twain

Poor wittle Darla, I outtwained you.

Time for the great Danold to head home and I leave you with one last thought Darla. If you make spanking illegal, then how do you expect to make a living from all the Liberal guys?
:whip:

Oh spanked again!

I can see you never actually read Twain, just his pull quotes.

It is good to see you revert to the right wing male MO though Dano, and insinuate that I am charging men for sexual acts. I'd hate to have one of you guys surprise me, and show some class.
 
Bottom line...if you hit your kids, you are a bad parent. Learn to communicate with your kids.

and if you think you should be able to hit your kids, I should also legally be allowed to hit you. Neither are my property.

I agree.

Like I said, weak people hit their kids. Its a sign to total weakness and buffonery, IMO. If you can't handle your kids without hitting them, you lack good parenting skills. I never got hit, and I've never had to hit a kid.

They have classes for parenting skills, BTW.

I wholeheartedly disagree. What works for some kids doesn't necessarily work for others. If a parent who's ultimately responsible for the actions of their kids deems it necessary spank, then that's their perogative. If the spanking is abuse then I'd agree that the gov't has to step in.

Well, if you're going to take on the responsiblity to clothe me, pay for my mortgage, feed me and take full financial responsibility for all of my actions (legal and illegal) then we'll talk.

I don't think in this entire thread I've passed judgement on the legislation. I haven't even read it, so I can't. It would depend on a whole host of caveats and waivers, if they are codified.

I'm just saying that in my experience, any competent parent finds it unneccessary to hit their kids.
 
Yeah that gives you the right to hit someone.

I didn't say it gave someone the "right" to hit anyone. I said, then we'll talk. To assume that any random 2 adults have the same relationship as a parent and child is ridiculous.

Yeah, we'll probably have laws limiting this after some time.

Kind of like the law in Arizona, still on the books, that says you may not hit your wife with any rod wider than the width of your thumb. Or, you may only hit her 3 times a month.
