You Need Parental Permission To…

Read books but you can beat them without parental permission.
Florida Students Seize on ‘Parental Rights’ to Stop Educators From Hitting Kids
An 18-year-old honors student says a spanking at her school went disturbingly beyond discipline. Now, she’s joined a student effort to fight back.

Inside a Florida high school principal’s office, Brooklynn Daniels found herself alone with two men and a wooden paddle “that was thick like a chapter book.”

In about a third of Florida school districts, and concentrated in rural panhandle enclaves like Daniels’s Liberty County, corporal punishment as a form of student discipline remains deeply ingrained in the culture. It’s why on this morning in early December, school leaders instructed the 18-year-old to bend over a desk.

What came next — a paddling that left deep purple bruises and welts for a minor school offense that Daniels said stemmed from a misunderstanding about Christmas decorations on a campus door — was far beyond routine student discipline, the Liberty County High School senior told The 74.

It was, she alleges, sexual assault.

“They were so eager to go in there and spank me,” said Daniels, who said she was struck by Assistant Principal Tim Davis, a former Major League Baseball player who pitched for the Seattle Mariners, while Principal Eric Willis observed and laughed. “They took their time, they watched me.”
But if your child want to read a book the parents have to approve of it first but not for beating the cr*p out of you child.
 
Where educators are allowed to spank kids
Schools that use corporal punishment to discipline students are primarily located in the South

Red = Allows corporal punishment
Orange= Allows corporal punishment but not for those with disestablishes
Yellow=Does not prohibit corporal punishment
Grey= Prohibits corporal punishment
 
Notice anything? Most of the red and orange are Republican states.



There is a Supreme Court case that is coming up that affects all of us...
Garland v. Cargill asks whether gun makers can evade the ban on machine guns with a device called a bump stock.

On February 28, the Supreme Court will hear a case that could effectively make it legal for civilians to own automatic weapons capable of firing as many as nine bullets every second.

The case, known as Garland v. Cargill, involves bump stocks, devices that use a gun’s recoil to repeatedly fire the weapon. Bump stocks cause a semiautomatic firearm’s trigger to buck against the shooter’s finger, as the gun’s recoil causes it to jerk back and forth — repeatedly “bumping” the trigger and causing the gun to fire as if it were fully automatic.
