Reason 9,784,329 WHY I Support Caning and Other Forms of Public and Corporeal Punishments

Ekwan Hill at arrest and during bizarre attack

What does a crime like this deserve?

Hmmmm....

In Saudi Arabia, he'd be immediately stoned to death.

Here in the U.S. our Press actually express sympathy for this "mentally ill" man deprived of treatment.

I like Saudi Arabia's approach a LOT better.

"Mentally ill," my ass! The guy wore gloves!

GET IT! This guy knew enough and planned enough to wear gloves to protect himself from the bio-hazard he used as a weapon....THAT meets the bar for premeditation.

And "treatment"?

There could be no more effective treatment than a severe and public caning in which this guy might receive 100 blows from a "heavy bamboo cane."

Sure, the guy might not walk for a week...or (if we're lucky) much longer and he could even die should infection set in...but even if that DID happen, what's the great loss?

My hopeful prediction is that as more such acts occur, more and MORE people will come around to my way of thinking.

At least HOPE springs eternal...
