Dr. Pistoph: Misbehavin’ Morons

I am convinced that our country would be a much better place if parents were to start spanking their kids again. Unfortunately kids are no longer afraid of their parents and as a result they grow up to be just plain rotten. There is a plethora of examples where young adults are misbehaving and might be acting differently if they’d been administered a daily beating while they were growing up.

Recent moronic moments include that of Kanye West who grabbed the microphone from Taylor Swift while she was being honored at the Video Music Awards. Some say he had been drinking prior to the event. Who cares what might have caused his lapse in judgment? He should get 15 lashes. Then there was tennis star Serena Williams who had a few choice words (mainly f-bombs) for a line judge at the U.S. Open. What a great role model for our children. She needs to be bent over her mother’s knee for ten good whacks with a wooden paddle.

Here are a few more. Singer Janet Jackson and her famous Super Bowl wardrobe malfunction; New York Giants football player Plaxico Burress carried a weapon into a nightclub and accidentally shot himself; Britney Spears – well, everything she does; Kiefer Sutherland was drunk in public; Dallas Cowboys Terrell Owens showed unbelievably self-centered play on the field; entertainer Chris Brown was found guilty of domestic violence against singer Rihanna; Amy Winehouse was a habitual user of drugs and alcohol; actress Tori Spelling refused to stop cursing in front of her kids; actress Paris Hilton made a pornographic video – I could go on forever.  

There’s no excuse for this level of narcissism and disrespect. Besides a lack of discipline by the parents of these whackjobs there is another reason that we are subjected to such boorish behavior. There are enablers among us. And you know who you are. After Kanye West’s crass display he appeared as regularly scheduled on the Jay Leno program. Leno should have cancelled his appearance. Instead he chose to chase the ratings. For that, Jay should be whipped with my dad’s belt on his bare legs. Fifty times should do it.
