ACLU Opposes Maine Bill Criminalizing Female Genital Mutilation
Daily Caller ^ | 26 May 17 | Anders Hagstrom

Posted on 06/19/2017 1:31:45 PM PDT by LSUfan

The American Civil Liberties Union launched a vocal opposition this week against a Maine bill criminalizing female genital mutilation (FGM), Mainely Media reports.

Republican Rep. Heather Sirocki is sponsoring the bill, saying that it would classify performing FGM as a Class B crime in the state, punishable by up to 10 years in prison and a $20,000 fine. The bill would also punish the parent or guardian of the victim.

However, the Maine ACLU staunchly opposes the protection.

ACLU Opposes Maine Bill Criminalizing Female Genital Mutilation

The genitals of ACLU females have already naturally frozen off, and ACLU males are gay and terrified of female genitals, so they see FGM as nothing objectionable.

There are many gruesome pictures of this practice that I think should be sent to every ACLU office in the country. Let them look at the faces of these little girls screaming in pain and terror while they are being tortured.

"Some news organizations won’t call it mutilation. They use other words, some just describing as a nondescript procedure."

Just like abortion.

Do they ever, EVER come down on the right and reasonable side of any issue?

The progressives sure play a dangerous game. Supporting the oppressive sharia law and other Islamic influenced customs simply because of the enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Also, be nice to know how infiltrated the muslim brotherhood is in the ACLU.

How about something criminalizing the ACLU?

Once in a great while. They were on the correct (IMHO) side of the recent SCOTUS case regarding “disparaging copyrights.”

Otherwise, the ACLU predictably is on the most anti-American, anti-Christian, anti-family side of any issue.

She's from Sri Lanka, where they practice FGM. Maybe she figures 'if I can't have them why should you?'

Mutilatd girls are a small price to pay to undermine the heritage of Christendom.

FGM means a woman will never experience an orgasm.

Limp dicked ACLU types have never given a woman an orgasm.

Maybe that explains their position.

That is what I am thinking. She is probably an advocate of the practice. Disgusting people she is.

My personal opinion is that both practitioners and defenders of the practice should be dragged out into the town square and broken on the wheel.

The government really, really needs to bring that back for pedophiles, FGM practitioners and a host of other sickening crimes.

The ACLU is akin to “West India Merchants” and the democratic party members are the “West India Planters” (politicians) and their slaves are the voters.

Female circumcision is the equivalent is chopping off a man’s penis.
