My other half has a case where there is a worry that a girl is vulnerable. Social services, for whatever reason, are rubbish apparently.

Well male circumcision isn't only acceptable but around two percent of all boys in Britain are circumcised each year. Imagine the outcry if these were girls.

Over time we've seen change in what is and isn't acceptable, socially and culturally, to say or do. Where do you draw the line at which people are or aren't offended. What about instances of inciting racial hatred? Should we allow hate preachers a voice to spread their anti western Wahhabi doctrine? I see where you are coming from, but it would lead to a darker place imo.

I think it's a dangerous road to travel down....Who defines acceptability. I've already seen and experienced ridiculous applications. People push interpretations...because that's what idealists do. If someone has an internet connection the preacher point is a bit moot. I most definitely want to know who is saying what and who is attending their lectures.

I'd imagine that if someone was calling you a pedophile you'd be pretty livid. Me, I'd probably deck someone if they were seriously inferring I was a child sex offender. Using free speech as a means of defending the indefensible - Denigrating 10% of the population without basis, or argument, should be a sackable offence in politics. Its no different than that ct who said 'all white people are racists' its dumb ct rhetoric aimed at gain the support of dumb c**ts.

Trust the left to blur the edges with waffle. FGM is not acceptable and anyone continuing this practice should be imprisoned or deported. I'm surprised circumcision of boys is still allowed other than for medical reasons. Pandering to mentals is not tolerance, it is letting standards slip and beginning a race to the bottom of civilised behaviour to accommodate the breathing of life into the failing birth rate and maybe securing a vote or two along the way.

If you're going to assert something, you need to be able to back it up else it comes across as a load of cobblers. It's not deflection, it's counter argument.
