Arkansas students to receive corporal punishment for participating in walk out

Three students in a rural part of Arkansas will allegedly be smacked for participating in Wednesday’s national walkout protesting against gun violence.
Despite that drastic punishment, one student’s mother, Jerusalem J. Greer, applauded her son and the other students at Greenbrier Public School for their defiant protest following the deadly shooting that killed 15 students and two adults at Stoneman Douglas High School last month in Parkland, Florida.
“My kid and two other students walked out of their rural, very conservative, public school for 17 minutes today,” Greer wrote on Twitter. “They were given two punishment options. They chose corporal punishment. This generation is not playing around.”
Green later said that the students face what the school calls “swats.”
According to Greenbrier Public School’s official policy, the school board “authorizes the use of corporal punishment to be administered in accordance with this policy by the Superintendent or his/her designated staff members who are required to have a state-issued license as a condition of their employment.”
The handbook says that before students are smacked they are to be “given an explanation of the reasons for the punishment and be given an opportunity to refute the charges. administered privately, i.e. out of the sight and hearing of other students.”
While 31 states across the U.S. have banned corporal punishment, four years ago The Washington Post reported that 19 states still allow administrators to hit students.
Greenbrier Public School, which is located in a town of roughly 5,000 people, only first adopted the seemingly outdated disciplinary policy in 2005 and last updated it in 2012.
The rural Arkansas school’s policy does caution administrations that the physical punishment should not be “excessive, or administered with malice” and should be administered in the presence of another school official or licensed staff member of the district.
The school’s assistant principal, Brett Meek, hung up the phone when The Daily Beast reached out for comment on the school’s regulations. The school’s superintendent, Scott Spainhour, did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Comply, or be beaten. 'Merica.

Hell, let's get biblical with our punishments, and stone those disobedient children at the town dates.

I can't believe two kids getting paddled for skipping class is considered news
Btw I would bet dollars to donuts the parents had to sign a consent form at the beginning of the year, parents can simply refuse and their child won't be paddled

Isn’t living in Arkansas punishment enough?

Are they more brave or less brave than TigerHuskers (who closed his bank accounts yesterday in response to his bank cutting ties with the NRA)?
I think both deserve their own Profiles in Courage.

Misleading article.
Greenbrier is 10 minutes from Conway, AR which has a constant population of 70,000, a University with an enrollment of 12,000 and two colleges, one of which is a hyper leftist liberal arts college.
On the other side of Conway is Little Rock which is only 45 minutes away.
The article is trying to make the place look like something out of Deliverance.
It isn’t.

I became a fan of spanking in the eighth grade when Ruthie S. didn't do her homework and got spanked for it. Mrs. P. bent her over the teacher's desk at the front of the classroom, lifted her skirt, pulled down Ruthie's panties and gave her georgeous butt three licks.
Every boy and lesbian in that room experienced a permanent change in his/her sexual outlook. I can still hear that paddle making contact with Ruthie's smooth, supple and resilient skin.

My grandfather would describe how they were punished by being forced to roll their pants legs up over the knees and kneeling in rice that was scattered on the floor while holding books in both outstretched arms for hours. The hard rice would cut into the skin like needles as you knelt on it over time. The arms would ache. You weren’t allowed to lean forward on the wall for assistance in bearing the load.
He was a great man, my grandfather. Tough as nails.

We had a teacher in the 4th grade in the 80's that would drag kids down the aisle by their ears to get up to the chalkboard.
One time his wife came in the classroom and told him he needed to pick up his son after school (from a special school) - and he said, "you can tell that retard he can walk home."
One classmate spit up some juice box on his desk and the teacher walked over, pushed his back on the desk and wiped up the spilled drink with this kid's backside and cussed at him.
And this was liberal California.
You couldn't get away with this shite today.

That is the type of teacher that we need today. Schools wouldn't turn out so many little wussies.

Ooooh, three licks gets you to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie pop.
Just ask Mr. Owl.
Sweet dreams tonight...
