You are disputing...what?

Mohammed addressed the issue of genital mutilation, permitting but not mandating the practice.

Do you seriously want to make the case that this is a Christian or even a Jewish practice? What sort of equivalency are you drawing?

Deporting is too good for him. I want to see him in the worst of our prisons. Let him look for a lawyer low enough to defend him.

To say that FGC is an ancient African practice is an insult to so many decent African Christians and especially Ethiopian Christians.

It is mainly a MUSLIM PRACTICE - decadent, inhuman just like they are.

Amen, Teenaged Conservative. They can take their diversity and stick it where the sun don't shine. Our culture should prevail on this planet because it is the best. Not perfect, by any means, but the best.

I've been to Africa. I wouldn't wish Africa on my worst enemy. Don't bring these backward cultural practices to sully my great nation.

You got that right! We are letting in some really weird Muslims and sects from East Africa and other parts.

Oromos, Yesidees/Yazidis, etc.

Isn't Guttmacher an arm of Planned Parenthood?

I may be smallminded, but that's the reason I wouldn't go to the link.

I repeat:

From Wikipedia:

"The procedure was legally practiced by doctors in the United States until 1996"

Is this true?

Terrible. Cannot imagine the horror the girl endured.

But America is not an "private part for private part" justice system - that's Islam, folks! Cmon people. Returning the violence doesn't serve the common good.

Jail time will do plenty as a consequence.

Publicly execute him. This would be the language the Islamists understand.

To quote an eye for an eye, it is the same as a man having his cock cut off ( with a pair of scissors )

How can you let this in to the USA and keep Mexicans out, I would much rather have 10,000 Mexicans living next to me than one such as this.

>From Wikipedia: <

Take what you read at Wikipedia with a large grain of salt. Anyone can edit a category, and I'd guess someone got in and lied to sway the gullible, in this instance.

Mom is just trying to cover herself by claiming she did not know for a year. In truth, she may not have been in agreement but Muslim wives do not argue or they get beaten. Mom may have gone through this cruel practice herself.

The child's mother said she did not discover it until more than a year later.
