San Francisco's anti-circumcision measure will be decided by voters in November, but the literature for the movement aims to sway them with some disturbing images -- including dark, evil-looking rabbis and a blonde superhero saving babies from their clutches.
The measure, supported by self-described "intactivists," would make circumcision performed on anyone under 18 a misdemeanor, even if it is done for religious purposes.
It would be punishable by a $1000 fine, or up to a year in jail.
But that's not the half of it: check out the eye-opening "Foreskin Man,'' the comic book for this anti-circumcision movement that uses images critics are calling blatantly anti-Semitic.
It was reported this week by Chronicle comrade and op-ed columnist Debra J. Saunders.

Circumcision has several health benefits related to sex.
(Not that that would concern San Francisco.)

The storys point is obvious....this looks like recycled NAZI propaganda literature... what the hell....is the left this nut? this oblivious?
Is Gay San Francisco now channeling Ernst Rhone as their role model?

La Raza promotes the "Protocols of the Elders or Zion" and has it on the web in Spanish and in
English. Perhaps this is a move by the progressives to ensure the illegal alien vote.

I knew they were never going to go after the true turd gangsters of Islam, but against jews and those circumcizing or castrating themselves for pious reasons... and, yet, it does not prevent them from castrating the whole economy and freedom altogether. Homos are going to be the next ones to be shot down, after all this posturing and good people are put down.

If this literature isn’t fake, all I can say is that I can’t imagine what the authors are thinking, unless they are Nazi’s or Mohammedans.

In the end, the blond guy steals the baby from his parents and gives him to a bunch of criminal hippies to raise...Who thought this was a good way to get their point across?

Why would a Rabbi be against circumcision?
To: JudgemAll
Does not Islam also requiring circumcision? ... The left might feel conflicted in that fight....
After all with Islam & circumcise it would be "You let us trim our heads or we will trim your heads!"

Islam treats circumcision the same way Christianity does. It is usually recommended if a parent asks a religious leader for advice, but it is by no means mandatory. Christian and Muslim religious leaders tend to see is a positive because both Jesus and Muhammad were circumcised.

San Francisco? Isn’t this the city where firemen stand on the shore while a suicidal man kills himself in shoulder high cold water only to be recovered by a civilian bystander while the firemen watch? Serious things are going to happen to a culture like that.
To: SmithL
Hey, it's a brutal operation--they did it to me when I was a baby, and I couldn't walk for a year!
Seriously, what happened to "...or permitting the free exercise thereof..." did they miss?
Or are they pushing for clandestine 'back alley' circumcision clinics....
Sheesh!

There is much controversy over the legitimacy of the "Protocols" published below. Please do not take them as the TRUTH, but verify for yourself if they correspond to actual reality. They of course have no opinions about the reality of the book.
Shocking.
