“Rule out the lash,” The Globe and Mail. January 12, 1970. Page 6.  ---- On two separate occasions Joseph Ziemba, 42, of Hamilton, is going to be led from his cell in a penitentiary, his shirt is going to be stripped off and he is going to be lashed five times with the cat-o'-nine-tails. His crime was robbing an elderly man of $85 and severely beating him in the process. County Court Judge Wilfred Leach sentenced Mr. Ziemba to eight years' imprisonment and 10 strokes of the lash. 

The lashing would be a deterrent to others "of a like mind", Judge Leach said. However, there is every indication. that Judge Leach is absolutely wrong and that the lashings will not only fail. to deter others but will fail to deter Mr. Ziemba from his evil ways. 

The report of the Canadian Committee on Corrections under Judge Roger Quimet which was published last September again made the point. "The written and oral evidence received by the committee has confirmed that judicial corporal punishment offers no definite assurance that offenders who suffer it are deterred by it or that it deters others," the report said. "We are satisfied that it has no long-term reformative value and, on the whole, believe that it has the contrary effect." The committee recommended that "corporal punishment, as a sentence of the court, be abolished". It added that "... the imposition of such punishment is brutal and degrading both to the recipient and the person imposing it". 

Also last fall, but before publication of the Ouimet Report, the Canadian Bar Association urged abolition of all forms of corporal punishment. Harry Walsh, a Winnipeg lawyer and chairman of the 'criminal justice section of the association, denounced the flogging and paddling of prisoners as a brutalizing act that had no place in an enlightened modern society. He said prison guards were extremely reluctant to lash a prisoner. "They realize that corporal punishment adversely affects the possibility of rehabilitation of the prisoner." 

After two years of study, a joint committee of the Senate and House of Commons in 1956 recommended abolition of whipping as part of a court sentence, although it said whipping should be retained for serious breaches of prison regulations. Corporal punishment had no unique value as a deterrent, the committee found. 

One of the main witnesses before the committee was Maj.- Gen. R. B, Gibson, Commissioner of Penitentiaries since 1946. He said that flogging as part of a court sentence was simply not effective. 

Courts of their own accord have almost eliminated sentences of corporal punishment. But the Criminal Code still sanctions it. And the occasional judge still orders it. The option should be ruled out. It should be abolished once and for all.

He need to be worried about getting handled in there

If you know a man who really likes either of these rappers he’s undoubtedly an awful piece of shit. Just gross and likely very very stupid. Infantile. And they hate themselves

This man is in California State prison talking about another man's problems is his problems, lol. Your ass is getting deported straight back to Toronto as soon as you get out, worry about yourself....

Americans are having a lot of discussions about what to do when their government doesn't give a shit and is doing things a lot of the populace actively doesn't want and its really frustrating that this is the state of things. That people are yelling to vote blue as if blue is genuinely trying to actually win people's votes with their actions. Like they've genuinely done some good but it's not enough, so what do you do when they aren't listening to you at all?

The people saying "just vote for them anyway" aren't getting the fact that people been trying that. They've been showing up despite suppression tactics and political antagonization. Maybe it's time for the politicians to do what they said they would or to lose their jobs.
