RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Thank Heavens We Don't Have American Style Gun Violence Eh ?Actually crime rates in Canada per capita are down substantially from highs in the 1990s so parents today seem to be rearing their children better than the parents of yesterday as if you believe all crime is committed by youth then the children of the 70's and 80's were commiting more crimes than the children of today. More population makes it seem like there is more crime but statistically you are safer today than you were in the 90's.
https://www.macrotrends.net/countries/CAN/canada/crime-rate-statistics If you belive hitting children is the answer to raising them properly perhaps it is best that you do not have any and leave others to the raising of theirs as studies shows that hitting children is more likely to produce outwardly violent adolescents and adults, You know, the kind that want to cut off hands for stealing and things like that.
Yes everyone wants to take away what they like from mythical books until someone points out the contradictions from that same mythical book then they claim the book is mythical and should not be taken as literally as they previously said it should.

How odd hundreds of millions in the western world follow that scripture diatribe, yet they only take the parts from it they like. It's akin to takin' the best parts of the Koran to make society better behaved. Everyone, and every belief in every fictional book has something to offer, so we should all be open minded.
REMEMBER : "Whoever spares the rod hates his son, but he who loves him is diligent to discipline him."
Hmmmmm.......Maybe parents these days should start disciplining their kids, yeah ? A good smack around the chops delivered to a mouthy teen is always a good thing for a parent to practice, sadly today it's lacking isn't it ? They did it in the "good old days", and violent crime wasn't a fraction of what it is today.
Sadly, you need a licence to go fishing, but any moron can breed, therein lies the problem.
