A ban on circumcision could end up on San Francisco's November ballot. A voter in the city says he will submit more than 12,000 valid signatures to the elections office today. That's more than the 7,200 needed to get the measure on the ballot. The proposed new law would make it a misdemeanor to circumcise a person before they are 18-years-old. "We don't come at this from a religious angle," Lloyd Schofield told the San Francisco Examiner. "We feel this is a very harmful thing. Parents are guardians. They are not owners of children. It's a felony to tattoo a child." Organizers of the campaign say they have more than enough signatures to get the measure on the ballot. The measure would make it a misdemeanor to circumcise a child, except for a valid medical reason.
Poster Comment: Of course they ignore the needs of religions, and studys that show that circumcision reduces the infection rate of AIDS. They make the point that "Parents are guardians. They are not owners of children". Couldnt this same point be made against abortion?

My aching dick - what next? Beyond insanity bump.
Somewhere in Kenya, a village is still missing its idiot.
I am all for this ban. Even if it passes though you can be sure a judge somewhere will strike it down.

I snipped both my boys and will not be with an unsnipped.
Do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.
I was clipped twice. Once by a Dr..
LOL, this will take less than 2 seconds for the Hymies to reverse in court.

There is a story in there I think.

Didn't your Dad tell you to stay out of those kind of establishments?? No, not THOSE kinds of place, I'm talking about doctors' offices, a guy could get killed in there.

umm, Stone... "you break it you bought it" doesn't really apply here.

Once again your ignorance of the New Testament is displayed. If you are not a "Jew" you should be one, cause you act just like one.

Circumcision reduces the infection rate of STDs, is more hygienic, easier to clean, and women say clipped men make better lovers.
No doubt. I can't come up with a rejoinder for the foreskin foragers out there.

Not obvious to me. You can always send me a PM.

Does anybody realize what this will do to the price of chewing gum in SF? The brand of chewing gum most popular in the bay area, Wrinkley's Snipmint" will no longer be available except on the black market.
