There you go again with the "weapon". A cane is not a weapon in this context. A knife, a gun yes, a cane, no - (and no, im not suggesting we shoot them (just yet anyway  ).

Weapon again ?? Anyway, feel free to question it, I question the thinking of someone who believes only parents can punish children. I wonder if we had a vote, would the majority be in favour or against the cane/ruler.
