Plan to ban circumcision a longshot

Advocates eager for State House hearing

A national group that views the circumcision of newborns as “genital mutilation” is taking its fight to Massachusetts and will press the Legislature to ban the age-old procedure at a hearing next month.

Matthew Hess, president of a group called the Bill to End Male Genital Mutilation, said the March 2 hearing at the State House is “the most important event to happen” for his budding organization.

“We are one step closer to making this a law and there’s a lot more attention being paid to it now,” said Hess, a Californian who was circumcised as an infant and underwent a foreskin restoration in his 20s in an attempt, he said, to increase sexual sensation.

Before Massachusetts, Hess’ group tried to get bills submitted in 14 other states, to no avail.

Sen. Michael W. Morrissey (D-Quincy) filed the bill on behalf of Charles A. Antonelli of Quincy under the right of free petition guaranteed in the state constitution, according to the senator’s office. Morrissey has no comment on the bill and is planning no action on it, said Kate Grogan, a legislative aide.

They were talking about this on Fox. There was some woman who referred to the foreskin as a living piece of human tissue, and to remove it without the consent is criminal.  I'll bet that same damn bitch supports the removal of other viable tissue from a woman's body.

Well, passing a law banning circumcision would slow down the occurrence of head cheese.

Just sayin'.   :-)    :fuelfire:

But then what would the pork rind manufacturers use?  What?  You mean nobody told the Southerners about that yet...?

I wonder who tipped them off?

Still, I think the effort will be cut short.

Pondering over circumcision can leave a lot of guys dangling.
