Newspaper Clippings

I unpacked an old moving box and discovered a stack of newspaper
articles that I clipped and saved years ago. I thought I would
share some of them. (Since most of these clippings are from the
Dallas Morning News, I've used DMN as an abbreviation.)

(DMN
April 19, 1977 The Supreme Court concluded by a 5 to 4 decision
that school paddling does not violate the Constitutional
prohibition of "cruel and unusual punishments" because it is not
a punishment in a judicial sense. They conceded that the
plaintiff's treatment was excessive but argued that it was not
unusual given its history in this country, and in any case was
not punishment since it was not judicial. This suggests that
they might have decided this case differently if his paddling
had been ordered by a court as punishment for a criminal act.
This decision led to a significant amount of follow-on
commentary in the press.)

This article was written in 2009 and updated in 2016.
Corporal punishment is legal in all school districts in Indiana,
but very few still use it today.
They used it when I was in school. It wasn't even a question as
to use it or not. Actually boys preferred getting a few whacks
than getting detention for the most part.
Today, boys are not allowed that choice, in most school
districts. I personally believe that boys being boys, for the
most part would still chose to get whacks rather than detention
or suspension.
I mean honestly. A school paddling was nothing like a proper
whipping we got at home. For my British friends. American
school paddling was not like the canings in the British schools.
They were hard swats, but they didn't cut into your flesh.
Bruise your buttocks, yes, but cut no.

I've already made my views on CP well known here, so I don't
need to repeat them. Instead, I'll just say 'thanks for taking
the time to scan and post these.'

And I both like and agree with your views on CP. Well at least
as long as I'm not on the receiving end. ;D
I'll let Adric speak for himself, but I think his idea is to
share how society is thinking about CP, not our individual
opinions on the subject.

As I am a "spanking" new member of Jack's House, I finally
stumbled upon this amazing nearly 8 year old thread by Adric.
Wow, what a collection! I don't think even the old Corpun site
can match this rarity. In the back of my mind the collection is
so rare that if/when we get back the MMSA site, that collection
can be copied over to the MMSA forums in order to give it the
best chance of being preserved for kind of all time? Up to the
thread's author I guess. Anyway, it was wonderful discovering
the thread, thanks again!

Glad you enjoyed it, PJ. I know Adric put in a lot of work into
this collection and sharing it.
I started to ask where you thought it should be posted, but I
guess we'll have to wait to see how the new forum is designed
when it appears again.

Adric and I have worked together to make sure that his unicorn
clipping collection is safe-guarded against loss and yes, it
remains
to be seen which future MMSA forum will host its contents
thread. It also occured to me the other day that the collection
could
become a focus or resource for future spanking story author
challenges.

Interesting. I would have never thought of corpun and to me and
ordinarily Ardric's collection would fit there. But corpun seems
to be
having a great deal of difficult updating their/his site
(whoever is operating it). The last update I just checked, 5
months ago.
I know that before the MMSA forum went down, the forum hosted a
thread about that very difficulty of corpun not updating.
Obviously, this would be
Adric's choice or decision, not anyone else's. Remember, Adric
did not approach me. It was I who solicited Adric to offer his
collection to whatever future MMSA forum that Flag
might revive. He very quickly agreed including to let me help
him make sure that is wonderful collection is safely achived
until such time.
And since I went to Adric, if it were me, I'd wish that Corpun
would ask Adric to host it on his/their own. If the owner does
not get around and search out more content on his/their own then
kind of what's the point? Nonetheless, your creative suggestion
is noted Y. Lee. And if in the future it is solicited by Corpun
or otherwise offered up to Corpun by Adric, then so much the
better for Adric's collection.
