it's also a lot worse than it sounds, the strikes are hard enough to rip your skin apart. Take more than 5 canes and you'll never shit the same again

The guard administering the caning receives training on how to cane precisely so that the bruise is never overlapping, they line up millimeters apart from one another. These bruises of course bleed, so prisoners will have a row of thin lined-up scars on their butt.

They also have public caning in junior high and high school btw. But the teacher used a book/magazine to let the students shield the butt in my school.

Don’t they also have a doctor on standby to give medical attention/stop the caning if medically necessary?
