Palm Beach, FL — As Americans cheer on
the wars in the Middle East lambasting the entire Muslim Community for
the barbaric act of female circumcision, an American woman is jailed for
refusing to circumcise her own child.
Contrary to popular belief, not all Muslim populated countries practice female circumcision. Many Christian majority countries practice this horrendous act. Also, those who stand against it, far outweigh those who are for it.
The irony here is that the same rabble-rousers who use female genital mutilation as a reason to “turn the whole place into a parking lot,” are silent when one of their own citizens faces the same persecution.
Last month, Heather Hironimus signed a consent form to allow the circumcision of her 4-year-old son. She did so under duress, as she was threatened with “indefinite imprisonment” for not giving consent.
Hironimus has been involved in a months-long battle over the preservation of her son’s intact penis. The child’s father, Dennis Nebus, forced the mother of his child and his son into hiding in a Broward County domestic violence shelter after seeking a court order to circumcise his son.
Hironimus was then charged with interference of custody, a third-degree felony. She was thrown in jail on May 14th and Nebus took custody of their son.
