Political correctness: a doctrine which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd from the clean end.
Surely you are allowed to smack kids in self defence...???![]()
Opinions are like arseholes: Everybody has got one, but that doesn't mean you got to air it in public all the time....
Good on the petition signees!
Creating criminals out of ordinary parents who give their sprog a tap on the bum is stupid, but nothing unsurprising from the retard Badford...
The "authorities" have enough power of prosecution, under other acts, of parents who beat their kids.
The Flying Spaghetti Monster?

Progress in action. This could be called "the evolution of child discipline..." Bloody fucking hell, we all turned out alright. Riding motorcyles, doing dope, binge drinking, fucking ho's, gambling away the child support on the pokies, smacking our no good fucking illegitimate offspring and their slut mum's about, so what's the issue?![]()
Ride, eat, sleep, repeat!
HEAR HEAR!
Sounds like your old man was from the same school as my old man.
Dad used to give us all a good thrashing about every 6 months JUST IN CASE.
That was just in case there was something he never slapped our arses for and he was just catching up.
Hard as hell on us as kids but we were best mates when I grew up.
As for me. never lifted a finger to my own kids ever. Needed to break the cycle.
The best part is my kids have been best mates to me from the day they were born I didn't wait for them to grow up.

Sounds like the PC brigade making noise again....
I was raised with a smack if I was being a naughty brat...nothing wrong with me...(except for the nervous twitch).
I am vehemently opposed to having had the right of smacking my children emoved from me as a form of discipline. There is a SHIT load of difference between a smack on the arse for being a prat, and beating the shit out of a child.
Don't try and tell me I am another Kahui either. Those dickheads wouldn't care less about the law. They were perfect examples of neglect and abuse and no doubt, are the very product of parents who never knew how to discipline properly.
If being an evil bastard is what it takes to be a good, loving parent then where do I sign up.(only smacking when it is absolutely necessary...for some kids it is not a suitable form of discipline, and for others - such as myself - it is/was the only form that gets through.)
Nail your colours to the mast that all may look upon them and know who you are.
It takes a big man to cry...and an even bigger man to laugh at that man.
Or it could also be that we have a whole fucken generation being raised that have NO idea on what self discipline, self control or respect are. hey ve never been held accountable and probably come from a social back ground where they only knew ONE type of a 'smack'.
There is a big difference between a light smack on a childs hand if say they go to touch something hot or dangerous or a small smack on the bum if there are naughty.
Rather, their idea of a smack leaves their childrens' little bodies with fucken broken bones, bruises and the like. That is abhorent to me, and I would happily show those sorts of parents exactly what violence is by removing their still beating heart with my bare hands. (maybe I am violent because I was raised with a bit of a smack when I was bad??)
Of my extended family including over 30 cousins whom I see on a weekly basis not one of us who was raised with smacking has been in any major trouble. We have all had our spells where we were 'naughty', but none have any assault charges against us, none have been involved in criminal activity, none have drinking or drug problems. Most of us serve in the community in one capacity or another and ALL of us would do what it takes to help those who need it.
My point form this rant, is simply that smacking is vastly different to physical abuse. Also, to concede that not all children actually need to be smacked.
Yes, I signed the petition.
Nail your colours to the mast that all may look upon them and know who you are.

There's still the basic assumption hanging in the air that people who are against this particular bill are child beaters and those who aren't are angels with perfectly behaved children, that anyone who protests that Government interference in the private lives of its citizens is bad, is automatically pro-violence, and those who support the bill believe wholeheartedly in the phrase, "I'm from the Government. I'm here to help you."
There are no sides. There are very few who operate within the extremes that the proponents and opponents of this particularly poorly constructed law would have us all occupy.
If a man is alone in the woods and there isn't a woke Hollywood around to call him racist, is he still white?
That is because the typical active antismack campaigner is strongly influenced by emotion and less likely to consider a logical based debate without resorting to perverting it with emotionally charged twaddle such as the aforementioned baseless accusations of committing criminal acts... simply because in their little minds they figure that they are right and you are not... thereby allowing them to righteously commit otherwise criminal and morally inappropriate actions such as generating baseless slander and perpetrating character assassination that will likely result in damage to reputation and mental well being...
But that's ok.. because they are the good guys who are honorably motivated by a burning desire to see that bad things stop happening to people.
Perhaps if we kill all the strongly opinionated good guys, the world would be a better place... If I'm right then it would be ok to do it.. wouldn't it?

Personally, I was against the bill before I'd read anything about it or heard anything about it. Why? It had Sue Bradford's name against it. Anything that spews forth from that harridan's mouth automatically gets placed in the "rantings of a deranged freak" category and gets treated with the scorn and ridicule it deserves. Pretty much anything said by any of the Green Party MPs can be guaranteed to be complete shite (although Stoner Nandor's announcements sometimes get quite amusing), but Bradford's simply beyond the pale.
And then my opinion of this Bill was re-inforced when Komrade Klerk decided to support it.
Green Party and Labour - fucking over New Zealand one day at a time!
