Title: SF to Ban Circumcision?

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?

I am all for this ban. Even if it passes though you can be sure a judge somewhere will strike it down.

LOL, this will take less than 2 seconds for the Hymies to reverse in court.

Good thing males don't have the same opinion of unsnipped females. There are no good reasons for it, none.

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.

Actually referring to those psychos that bite it off.

No doubt.

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.
