The Overarching message - Caning

Oh, please! Do you REALLY think mind raping Harry over and over was  
actually a way to TEACH.
How about I yell at you ready and smash your head with a 2x4. Is this the  
best way to learn to duck or hit back?
Have you read the books and actually considered if Harry was your child?
Caning Harry for a real infraction would be fine with me.
Taunting and insulting a student and their parents in the class room, to  
me, is abuse.
Do we have evidence that any other teacher used the same teaching methods,  
thus justifying them as typical of wizarding methods? Was any other  
teacher, who was a DE, made head of house before their 30th birthday and  
given carte blanche to teach, without reviewing his methods after each and  
every complaint?
Just ask yourself if you were Harry or his parent, what would you think of  
his teaching methods.
Again, don't whine about caning since caning is NOT part of the school  
disciplinary method.
Compared to any other teacher, Snape is crap, Snape abuses his power,  
Snape causes accidents by hovering over students and NOT correcting them  
(this punishing Harry for NOT catching the error some other student made).
Any one who tries to justify Snape is someone I pray never has children...
