Retiring Guy's Digest: Greetings from Trump's America: Faulkner County, Arkansas, where students who participated in March for Our Lives got paddled

Students paddled by public school staff after participating in walkout in Arkansas. (USA Today, 3/19/2018)

Greenbrier Schools Superintendent Scott Spainhour confirmed to KARK-TV, Little Rock, that three high school students who violated rules by leaving their classroom were given the choice of two disciplinary actions: in-school suspension or the paddle.

Spainhour clarified to the station that the students received punishment for violating the rulebook, not specifically for protesting. Paddling as a disciplinary measure must receive parental approval, he said.

Faulkner County's proximity to Little Rock accounts for its population growth since 1960.
