A federal judge dismissed charges Tuesday against two doctors and six others involved in the genital mutilation of nine girls at a Detroit clinic, and also declared a US law banning the practice unconstitutional. US District Judge Bernard Friedman dismissed mutilation and conspiracy charges against Dr. Jumana Nagarwala, who performed the surgery, and Dr. Fakhruddin Attar, who allowed his clinic in Livonia, Michigan, to be used for the procedure. The same charges were dismissed against Attar's wife, Farida, and Tahera Shafiq, who assisted in the procedure, as well as four women who tricked their daughters into going to the suburban clinic to undergo the practice for religious purposes. Four of the nine girls are from Michigan; the others are residents of Illinois and Minnesota.

This gets thrown out, meanwhile Acosta’s back in the White House and the caravan gets to roll on in.
Detroit gurls can now freely engage Dr. Fakhruddin Attar to perform genital mutilation . The State law banning the practice was declared unconstitutional.
The right of these women to control their own sexuality has been compromised. And not a single peep from the feminist crowd.
Get your clitorectomy today...in DETROIT!
The Islamic invasion of America proceeds apace.
They are not the same thing. FGM has no health benefits instead it causes lifelong health issues.
aint multiculturalism great ???
don’t these people add so much to our country ??? bring so benefits ???
Notice I left off the capital letters so you wouldn’t be frightened...
im into diversity like real heavy
As an MD you appear frightfully ignorant of the results of FGM and the enormous health impacts.

What many on this forum seem to forget is that conservatives are the group that lives by and strictly follows righteous values and principles both in their personal and political lives. We don’t bend with the wind on these when it suits our purposes as is the norm on the left.
I got into an extended argument on another thread attempting to defend the “rule of law” concept with a group who thought it was A-OK to simple disregard laws that they personally disagree with....Just like the left on issues like immigration, free speech etc. Perfectly willing to be hypocrits because of some self perceived higher good.
I believe the judge said this is a State’s decision, not the Feds. I agree. Everyone here should agree, if you stand for the principles of this site.
So will this be the talk of the female talk shows? Where’s Oprah on this?
My God, that doc looks like Bin Laden resurrected!
I believe the difference between Male and female circumcision I’d that Male circumcision only takes a small amount of skin leaving the Male capable of enjoying his sexuality
Female circumcision totally mutilated a woman, leaving her very disfigured, and incapable of female pleasure.
One was ordered God as a particular sign, the other is a human male’s attempt to injure, and control.
So Michigan can just decide that it is okay for medical doctors to mutilate the genitals of female minors and your argument is that it is a state not federal matter?
I think only SCOTUS should be able to decide if a law is unconstitutional. It would go a long way in robbing these black-robed Oligarch-dreaming morons of their power...
Since I didnt say anything about FGM how can you assume what I know about it?
This blind spot to FGM how I know they are fake Women's advocates, fake SJW. In many counties 90% of the women have been mutilated. The rate in the UK has been snowballing with 600 cases reported last year alone.

Into diversity? My, my, my.....you are a good learner (smirk).
Agree, and on a more practical level, there’s no shortage of Republicans hoping to find a reason to impeach and then drive Trump out of office. Those Republicans know enough to lay low appear to support Trump, or else their own careers are finished...and there may be enough of them to take out Trump (with the Democrats, of course, voting the same).
But, if an opportunity came up where Trump did something egregious, like openly disobeying a court edict, and if the country started to really turn against Trump for it, Trump would find his supporters in Congress quite limited, just as Nixon found.
Of course Trump knows all that, which is EXACTLY why he won’t give them anything to go after him with. And now with the House run by Democrats, the Democrats may well make asses of themselves by voting for impeachment, without any basis.
Very elucidating. Sicko Muslim practices of genital mutilation on gurls. Where are the feminists? ( crickets.)
Thanks for the other half of it.
Using their line of reasoning, male circumcision should be a Federal issue.
Certainly different in degree and effect but genital mutilation plain and simple.
The females on The View don’t know what this is but they will yap like experts extolling its many imagined virtues just because its a moslem practice...
In the heat of the moment when I read your comment I thought that you were suggesting there was not much difference between the two except there was a minor helth benefit to circumcision. After I posted mine I reread and realized you didn’t strictly say that at all. You did not address at all why they were apples & oranges which is not the same as suggesting that FGM is a minor procedure that only “possibily” affects sexual pleasure. This has been a topic that has made me see red since I first heard of the practice many years ago. I apologize that my response to you was unfair.
