Egyptian general admits 'virginity checks' conducted on protesters

A senior Egyptian general admits that "virginity checks" were performed on women arrested at a demonstration this spring, the first such admission after previous denials by military authorities. The allegations arose in an Amnesty International report, published weeks after the March 9 protest. It claimed female demonstrators were beaten, given electric shocks, strip-searched, threatened with prostitution charges and forced to submit to virginity checks. At that time, Maj. Amr Imam said 17 women had been arrested but denied allegations of torture or "virginity tests."

Don’t worry about grammar too much. Most Lefties can’t read much less understand what jokes they are ;)

JimRob is as fed-up with the crap as I am.

JimRob will speak his own mind.

[Gene Eric]

I get that. Is there a post you can point to?

[UCANSEE2]

Well, yes, but I think they have to be raped first per the rules.

Isn't that how they test for virginity?

[raygun]

If you look at MY posting, and things that JimRob posted to me, it should be clear.

JimRob is NOT happy at all.

We’ll see ‘bout things. Eh?

Do you believe that Romney might take the nomination? JimRob is wholly unwilling to accept the consqeunces.

There is NO FreeRepublic post-Romney.

>>You are one sick creature.<<

It was just there.

But sometimes humor steps out of bounds.

*pah*

You’re reading too far into my request. I’m merely looking for an href to the post.

[brushcop]

And I agree for one with Jim, it’s past time to choose sides and stand for what’s right.

[Gene Eric]

Thanks, Kirkwood.

There is NO FreeRepublic post-Romney.

Baloney.

[Jim Robinson]

Like, hell. I said if Romney wins the nomination, I’m no longer a Republican. And I and FR will actively campaign against him. If that drives away more than just the RINOs, so be it. I will not be party to electing an abortionist, homosexualist, statist Republican to walk all over our constitution. Leave that crap to the damned democrats! We don’t need two abortionist/socialist parties. It’ll be time for the constitutionalist Tea party to blossom.

Rebellion is brewing!

DONT TREAD ON ME!!

[raygun]

Why don’t you get on the threads and post about w/respect to how great Romney is.

You’ll find out how much baloney there is.

[Heuristic Hiker]

Hey Egypt, So how are the hopey-changey virginity checks working out for you?

[raygun]

See!

There he is.

He can speak for himself.

We had this discussion what happens if Romney gets the nomination.

Apparently people will be able to post Pro-Romney all they want (it would appear based on most recent JimRob commentary). Not what I took away from the discussion...

That’s fine.

[Jim Robinson]

Huh? We don’t support abortionist/homosexualist/statists on FR!! Push Romney at your own risk.

[Jim Robinson]

NOTICE: FR DOES NOT AND WILL NOT SUPPORT ABORTIONIST, GAY RIGHTS PUSHING BIG GOVERNMENT STATISTS

Jim, I'm not pushing anything. I'm sorry to haee said aything. I understand you position: no homo,abortionist, statist. IF Romney gets the nom you're still NOT endorsing the foreging. FreeRepublic will still be here and as long as they don't endorese the bad, they're golden. I'm foolish to think that Bastiat might have been recieved in better ligtht... Like hell (JimRob), understood... When Romney recieves Republican nomination JimRob renouncess his affiliation with Repub. Its after that point thast it'll be o.k. to post pro-Romney at FreeRepublic.

[raygun]

Roger that. It was nothing but a big misundersanding.
