: Supreme Court of Hawaii Blog (Unofficial)Court's view of discipline of children criticized
It's been a good year for dominionist wingnuts who think children are their property to batter. In the spring, the Minnesota Supreme Court legalized the merciless beating of children.Now the Hawaii Supreme Court has followed suit.
The Hawaii verdict is a bad ruling. And it's unmistakably an activist one. The unanimous decision reverses the abuse conviction of a man who ruthlessly kicked and slapped his girlfriend's teenage son because he didn't grate cheese properly.
Hawaii Legal News has additional commentary:
Parental Discipline not an Affirmative Defense and Measured by "Reasonableness"
