But Starts First With Proposal To Cut The Thumbs Off Of Graffiti Artists: "`I'm saying maybe you put them on TV and cut off a thumb,' the mayor added. 'That may be the right thing to do.'
Goodman also suggested that whippings or canings should be brought back for children who get into trouble.
`I also believe in a little bit of corporal punishment going back to the days of yore, where examples have to be shown,' Goodman said.
`I'm dead serious,' said Goodman, adding, `Some of these (children) don't learn. You have got to teach them a lesson, and this is coming from a criminal defense lawyer.'
`They would get a trial first,'' he added.
Another panelist on the show, Howard Rosenberg, a state university system regent, responded by saying that cutting off the thumbs of taggers won't solve the problem and Goodman should `use his head for something other than a hat rack.'''
Now there's a guy for whom the voices are beginning to loom large.
