Texas: Huh?

I find the state of Texas quite confusing. On one hand, it’s starting to look like a nice place to move: they have good homeschooling laws (none), they just decided to again attempt to ban the TSA from unconstitutional searches, and they also told Congress where they can stick their laws making it a crime to have an incandescent light bulb.

But then, this is the same state that just took a woman’s children from her for the sole reason of her spanking one of them because, according to the judge, if you spank your children, you deserve to be jailed. I think that judge needs to be spanked with liberty.

    Spare the rod and spoil the child. It’s the reason my son hates me so much, because I disciplined him when it was necessary, while his mother didn’t.
    No wonder our country is so frakked up.

    Bible says “spare the rod and spoil the child”. God wouldn’t have said this if it was wrong. That doesn’t mean you can harm your child, but a smack on the rear end might keep him out of future trouble. We need to get these judges off the bench.

    Judges like this need to be tarred and feathered to prevent others from taking their place.

    You can tell the Judge was never spanked, he could use one now.

    Just goes to show, you can find liberal slugs anywhere.
    Now this judge would probably bridle at the suggestion that he is a “Godless” man, but he is not up to date on his Bible, especially where it says “Spare the rod, and spoil the child.”
    AS an aside, to all those with children, just remember, they are only cute to you- to others they may well be less than cute.
    My wife and I raised a daughter that we only had to spank once- after that, the threat alone worked, because she knew we would do it.

      Be careful what you post here, Blake — if that judge reads this post, he may have you jailed.

        Someone should have spanked the judge when he was a kid. Hell, someone should spank him now. And you can tell the judge he has no jurisdiction on my blog. He should stay in his lane and he will be OK.

        He can sure try- but I have a good lawyer. You know what they say- all lawyers are bad except mine, and he’s damn good.
