You think physically beating them will make them less likely to bring in a weapon?
I don't think a kid needs to have constant physical beating, but if he or she does act up and do anything threatening to others, it can make them think twice about doing such things. Yes it can make them less likely to bring a weapon or even think about doing something that might well end with their bottom getting smacked to oblivion.
The problem is if you don't punish kids in a way that hurts, they end up escalating their violent horrible behaviors because they start to believe nothing bad will happen to them no matter what they do.
Kids who bring weapons to school are not deterred by a "bottom smack" lol
If that's not what you were suggesting, then perhaps don't say that in the first place.

Don't give a shit what you do.
You sound exactly like the reason why kids bring weapons to school. And frankly I wouldn't bother stopping them if you were their teacher lol
Frankly you ARE a total scumbag and so I don't give a fuck what you think, but your words will come back to bite you. That much I will guarantee.
Really? And how is that going to happen exactly?
You obviously give a HUGE fuck what I think lol

What you're saying is you removed my comment because it was truthful and therefore unacceptable to your community.
Check the modlog, I don't moderate people opinions if they can communicate it in a civil manner without ad hominem attacks.
I don't give a flying fuck WHAT your self-important reasons are for doing anything. STOP posting to me about it, I dont' give a flying crap!!!!!
