fortunately MY tax dollars didnt pay him.. He is (was?) a county court judge (on the Arkansas County payroll.. shouldnt be getting any federal dollars.. and I dont live in Arkansas..)..
my guess is he was never prosecuted for this.. he should have been..
Im all for corporal punishment.. I think far too may parents "spare the rod, and spoil the child"... What we end up with are Gen X and Gen Y types that think the world owes them something, and that they shouldnt be held accountable for anything..
that said.. this OBVIOUSLY crosses the line.. and crosses it deep... his behavior (cursing, excessive beating, etc..) isnt teaching her anything other than to fear and hate him (as evidenced by her posting it up on the internet ad by the comments she has made there..)
