Oh how I yearn for the good old days;

imperial measurements
hanging of murderers (they did this in prehistory if you want a tenuous link)
being able to twat kids when they get out of line.
the police being able to twat kids & crims when they get out of line
the birch / cane
conscription
but most of all Respect

You could move to Iran and enjoy all the above delights and more! Ah the good old days...
