Jewish Issues: "‘Circumcision and the Special City"

San Francisco's upcoming vote on banning circumcision:

In 2010 San Francisco supervisors banned Happy Meals. They showed no regard for parental choice.

So it should not come as a shock that activists have managed to put a measure on the November ballot that essentially would outlaw the circumcision of baby boys. If it passes, then parents won't be able to choose to circumcise their infant sons. The penalty for the "genital cutting of male minors" will be a $1,000 fine and/or up to a year in jail.
