namby pamby sums the state up very nicely,in my youth i knew people that would not set foot on the isle of man-cos they were afraid of getting birched if they misbehaved,on that basis alone nobody will ever convince me that its not a deterrant.also i think most of these so called DO-GOODERS live in a different enviroment to ordinary people-or a different world.
