As someone who fully supports corporal punishment and one who
was raised in an era where parents & teachers used this form of
punishment, I would never use it in this new school system. A
former Assistant Superintendent of the old MCS under Johnnie B.
Watson stated many of these kids come to school not knowing
their names (Memphis Flyer article). Many don't know who their
parents are because they have no father in the home.  These kids
have no discipline in the home and they have no family
structure. The government is their family. Many of these kids
are raised by people who are paid by the government to vote for
one political party. In turn, that party lets them trade work
for Welfare. This has gone on since the mid 60's and has created
generational poverty. The situation is too volatile for
teachers.  These liberals tell us "it take a village." No, it
takes a government.
