The intentional abuse of students at school is still legal in 19 states man with backpack beside a books
In the United States, it is illegal to hit another person. It is illegal for police officers or correctional officers to use force for any reason other than subduing someone.1 A court of law cannot sentence someone to physical punishment, such as whipping or branding, which were common criminal punishments, historically speaking, because that would violate the cruel and unusual clause of the Eighth Amendment. Why then is corporal punishment still legal for schoolteachers to enact on students in 19 states?

Dear friends and RSR readers:
I must ask your kind forgiveness in my being absent for so long, but hope and trust you do understand that in addition to my currently working on three books and teaching classes at a local (Miami) fine and fully accredited university, I am involved with numerous local and statewide history projects and initiatives but want to assure you all that I will work diligently to improve my time performance.
Miami’s 125th anniversary is coming up in July and I am pleased to share a piece which I re-wrote for a fellow who is doing a yeoman’s job in preparing for said anniversary. Please enjoy but please remember that while this piece was written by my friend, Cesar Becerra, I did a major restructuring and correction(s) job and so I am not taking credit for anything but that, along with correcting some of the facts, in several cases in which said corrections needed to be made in order to be certain that truth was being conveyed.

In early January 1992, the container ship Evergreen
Ever Laurel departed Hong Kong for Washington. Among the millions of things that
Ever Laurel was carrying was a consignment of plastic children’s bath toys manufactured in China for the Japanese toy company The First Years Inc. Four days later, on 10 January 1992, the freighter ran into a storm in the North Pacific. Hurricane-force winds and waves thirty-six feet tall rocked the 28,900-ton ship from side to side. Under the strain of the pitching and rolling, two tall columns of containers stacked six high above the deck snapped loose from their steel lashings and crashed into the sea. At least one of the containers burst open, spilling several dozen cardboard boxes containing approximately 29,000 bath toys into the ocean.
