Minnesota Dems Favor Female Genital Mutilation

That's an exaggeration, but they also think it's no big deal: http://www.wnd.com/2017/05/minnesota-retreats-from-ban-on-female-genital-mutilation/

Apparently, the gov. is cool with it too: http://www.dailywire.com/news/1229/...nts-more-refugees-state-still-michael-qazvini

You know, it used to be that sensationalism was looked down upon.

Minnesota Dems Favor Female Genital Mutilation

That's an exaggeration, but they also think it's no big deal: http://www.wnd.com/2017/05/minnesota-retreats-from-ban-on-female-genital-mutilation/

"Instead of removing children from their families and sending parents to jail, critics say the state should use public tax dollars to try to “educate” the large population of Third-Worlders in the state on why it is wrong to mutilate their daughters’ genitalia..."

"The practice is already banned by a federal law passed by Congress in 1996. But the federal law is rarely enforced and doesn’t call for the removal of parental custody, although it does carry a penalty of up to 10 years for any doctor convicted."


Jesus fucking Christ, can't you people discuss something without throwing your hands in the air and screaming the sky is falling? It wasn't just your title that was an exaggeration, the whole fucking post was! Can't you find a less bias, more intelligent person to quote then Michele Bachmann???
No where in that article was it stated or insinuated that the Dem's were in favor of FGM. It was however stated that they considered the punishment too harsh and that the money was better spent on education. While I don't agree with that assessment, I think that both education and punishment should be instituted, I am also not in favor of dip shits trying to intentionally inflame a situation and obscure the real actual point that is trying to be made by using such stupid ass slanted, bias rhetoric. And just for the record, this isn't just about the assholes on the right, you assholes over on the left that use the same god damn tactics should take heed also. Assholitis are not limited by age, gender, education level or political affiliation. It is however marked by a narrow minded, bias, myopic, view point that refuses to use the gray matter nature gave us. Grow the fuck up people!

'Nuff said.

Then tell it. Instead of posting some sensationalist piece of garbage that, as usual with that site, isn't even reflective of the situation.

"Truth" indeed.

Hiding behind whackadoodle fringe websites is a Lit conservative tradition.
When called out on it, they simply recite the Vettebigot Creed:

I didn't say that!
I didn't say I agreed with that article!
I was merely PASSING IT ALONG!
Derp without end, Amen.
Heil Trump!

But I did say that, and conceded the thread title was an exaggeration, but it was not an untruth, relatively speaking. There are Dems and Liberals who think FGM is not really a big deal. http://www.startribune.com/minnesota-bill-against-female-mutilation-raises-opposition/423070383/

Where does it say that it's not really a big deal?

What I see is the medical lobby opposing big brother legislation that will scare people away from their treatments.

In Minnesota, the state’s Democratic leaders are perplexed by whether to advance a bill banning the barbaric, Third-World practice of female genital mutilation.

After first passing the bill unanimously in the state House last week, lawmakers are now having “second thoughts” about whether to continue pushing the bill through to the governor’s desk, according to a report in the Star-Tribune.

The bill’s GOP sponsor said her colleagues in the Senate have gone wishy-washy on the bill due to pushback from certain segments of the refugee-resettlement industry, which is very powerful in Minnesota, getting paid millions in federal dollars annually to distribute Somali refugees throughout the state.

The bill would crack down on parents who submit their daughters to the grisly procedure in which doctors remove all or part of a girl’s clitoris.

If passed, the bill would revoke parental custody and set a prison term of five to 20 years for any parent found guilty of having their daughter mutilated. The bill was introduced and quickly passed by the House following revelations last month that two Detroit-area doctors had been arrested and charged with practicing FGM on two 7-year-old Muslim girls from Minnesota.

The Minnesota parents allegedly delivered their girls to Dr. Jumana Nagarwala, one of two Muslim physicians in the Detroit area accused of secretly performing FGM.

But now the bill has stalled as some liberal legislators are publicly voicing concerns in the local Minneapolis newspaper that the bill’s penalties are “overly harsh.”

Instead of removing children from their families and sending parents to jail, critics say the state should use public tax dollars to try to “educate” the large population of Third-Worlders in the state on why it is wrong to mutilate their daughters’ genitalia.

According to UNICEF, the pre-Medieval practice continues to be performed on a majority of girls in Somalia, Egypt, Sudan, Mauritania, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Mali, Guinea, and parts of Yemen, India and Pakistan.

A Centers for Disease Control study from last year estimates that 513,000 U.S. girls and women are at risk of having their genitals mutilated.

Dude, seriously. Why don't you full on commit to the extremist sensationalism and post articles from the blaze or red state.

 

[Rightguide]

There's a horde of guilt-ridden female liberals embracing Sharia Law as a way of kissing up to Muslins in hopes they will be understood and accepted and not be harmed by Muslim men; the occasional sacrifice of somebody's clit being a small price to pay.

Virtually all of Sharia Law is unconstitutional. You'd have learned that had you attended high school.

Maybe all immigrant families should have their children taken from them so they can be indoctrinated into "our" culture and protected from the barbaric practices and religions of their parents. The children can be put in schools were they can reside and that are run by decent Christian denominations.

The right-wing opinion piece? Where are the "Dems and Liberals who think FGM is not really a big deal?" Nobody is quoted, and the one reference to what someone said is from a Republican.
