By now, you’ve no-doubt heard that residents in San Francisco want to vote on banning circumcision for male children. As if that was not controversial enough - now the state is getting involved.
That’s right… Assembly Bill 768 - would apply to any city or county government. Its being introduced in response to a San Francisco ballot measure. AB 768 is designed to derail the San Francisco measure - if its approved by voters.
"To enact an outright ban on an expression of personal, medical and religious freedom is an affront to all who value liberty," said Assemblyman Mike Gatto, a Los Angeles Democrat who proposed AB 768.
"San Francisco's first-of-its-kind initiative has drawn national attention for targeting circumcision, removal of the male foreskin, a practice that has biblical roots and that many believe was commanded by God in a covenant with Abraham."
(If San Francisco's initiative is approved and enacted, violators could be jailed for a year, fined $1,000 -- or both.)
"The city's measure would put the police department and politicians in charge of who can and cannot get circumcised," Ma said. "We should not be putting government in that position."
Circumcision man is taking on Monster Mohel.
This whole thing disgusts me.
I predict many babies will have to die in unsafe, back-alley circumcisions before the Supreme Court will step in and discover a “right to pubic privacy” (in the Constitution’s penumbral emanations) during the soon-to-be history Baby Roe v. San Fransisco case.
Does this mean Muslims do not circumcise?
That is right, Muslimes are required by sharia to be circumcised. 8th century practices rule!
“Circumcision” is code for “Jew” or “Christian.”
California is a totalitarian state.
So are we saying the Homosexual government of San Francisco is prohibiting that which is Shariah and/or Halal?
When the Nazis captured some central European towns they shot the circumcised for being Jews.
That is how it seems! I am sure they will write an exception clause if you are a Muslime.
But the J00Z would not?
Queer-Nazis.
IF they do this, all their male lawyers will be taller.
I am amazed at how many americans want to live under a total dictatorship, from lightbulbs, toilets and circumcisions...Where you can talk and where you cannot. Where you can assemble and where you cannot not etc...In other words, they want to live in slavery, total slavery...they are not human, they are robots with skin.
“Circumcision” is for butcher of babies.
I wonder if they will ban getting your little girls ears pierced or your teenage girl a nose job or a breast augmentation?
