OK State Senator Claims Banning Corporal Punishment on Students with Disabilities Socialist and Violates Scripture

According to Oklahoma State Senator Shane Jett banning the use of corporal punishment on students with disabilities is some evil ‘socialist’ concept that violates scripture.

Oklahoma legislatures have battled over the use of corporal punishment for over a year. The debate to continue this barbaric practice or ban it all together centers around the Bible and deeply held religious beliefs…but of course! Apparently, parents could ‘opt in’ if they want their children beaten but House Bill 1028 hat passed the Senate on Tuesday removed that opt-in amendment, prohibiting corporal punishment for disabled children in all scenarios.

Senator Dave Rader brought the revised version to the Senate floor.

Eleven legislators voted against HB 1028 but it eventually passed 31-11. Sen. Blake “Cowboy” Stephens offered this about the alleged ‘socialist’ plot to ban corporal punishment on children with disabilities:

"I think we're taking away something that parents desire for their children to grow up and be good citizens," said Sen. Blake "Cowboy" Stephens, R-Tahlequah. "I just think we're going down the wrong road."
