Running interference

Crowhill Weblog: U.S. out of the U.N., U.N. out of the U.S.

“That no child is subjected to corporal punishment.”

“Public [i.e., government] education for the first time would be a ‘right’ to all children of the United States under the UN Convention. Parents interfering with the child’s right to choose [government] education would be violating his rights and could be subject to prosecution.”

The odds that something like this would ever be adopted in the U.S. are close to zero, IMO, but this kind of thing shows the kind of socialist nonsense that comes out of the U.N.

It’s a useless organization and it’s past time for us to get out.

That pretty much sums it up. I would disagree that the odds of adoption are close to zero. The fact that this garbage is pushed through the liberal states first and then as it becomes "the accepted norm" by the media, other states are beaten into submission. See California and Corporal Punishment.

It is worse than useless and its wares are not just nonsense. It has a purpose, one that it tries so hard to hide.
