Thank peter16 but, in light of recent events, I was rather hoping for a serious debate.

I would not complain about the return of corporal punishment or capital punishment. Bring em on ASAP [

Me neither!!!
But I would definately ask for National Service in the UK to be resumed .... especially for those that have claimed unemployment benefit from youth, or those that haven't 'actively' seeked employment.... at the very least they will learn skills, as well as respect!!!!

I am against this but only because of the current culture.
Corporal punishment could feed the egos of these yobs as they could then use this infliction of pain as a measure of how "hard" they are and then compete for who can earn and tolerate the worst.

Here is 27 reasons not to bring back capital punishment
( and it is only a starting point )

People hung and later proved innocent

George Kelly

Barry george
Winston Silcott
Stefan Ivan Kiszko
Ronan Bennett

Thank you mam, that what comes of reading with my shades on.

but I rather think the same rules apply.

PS, why on earth would the Army want them ??

I'm all for National Service as I'm sure it would give many of them a sense of purpose and would help them learn to respect themselves and others. I think respect is half of the problem as the schools have their hands tied and many parents don't know the meaning of the word.
