It is interesting that this American case makes the news in the UK, in its largest circulation newspaper, but I have not seen it reported in the US. There are other similar lawsuits under way in the US and Canada, including at least one here in North Carolina against doctors who have mutiliated children by surgery and drugs in this manner.

While this may be reason for many to "hate" the doctors who do this to children, the solution is to do all we can to stop it from victimizing children. Laws to prohibit it as many states have adopted, including North Carolina, are a key. The lawsuits are another, because they will push the medical malpractice insurance for doctors who do this to children so high that they will not be able to afford them.

The important part is to put a stop to this brutal and barbaric practice. Americans used to be outraged at the less far reaching, but still awful genital mutilation of children in the Third World, but now it is being done on an industrial scale in our own country, and the far left encourages it.

There are actual ly multiple tiers. Your best bet, be rich, make and white. Take away those 3 characteristics and your chance justice declines.

Just once I’d like the BO to take up the cause of the black guy who did 20 years for a crime he didn’t commit. Never been done. But let a white guy murder a black…well then it’s all hands on deck. And I’m the racist.

Or maybe MAGA is so dirty it’s a target rich environment ?

Stan is right. We not only fail to remember but fail to teach this to our children. Once in a while we hear the term “The greatest generation” and most young people have no idea what that means.
I was almost seven years old when I was sitting in my father’s chair in pajamas listening to a re-run of “Jack Armstrong the all-American boy” on that Sunday morning when I heard the announcement that Pearl Harber had been bombed.
In less than a year the Army came to my Dad, while we lived in Blounts Creek, and asked if they could put an Observation Post in our side yard. It did not take an act of Congress or a court action, my Dad said yes. We were at war.
My mother became the Chief Observer, and we spotted airplanes for the entire war.
By the time I was nine years old, I could identify all planes that flew by their silhouette. I thought I was in the Army.

For centuries in Anglo-Saxon criminal law, a right of self defense and a right of defense of others have been recognized. Both of these applied to Daniel Penny and it is a horrible miscarriage of justice that he was charged over this incident. That is particularly true since the psycho who attacked the passengers was breathing and had a heartbeat when the rescue squad arrived.

This is racial politics by Alvin Bragg. There was a very similar case in Manhattan not long before where a black man armed with a gun threatened a car load of subway riders. Another black man acted the Good Samaratan then, got the gun away from the attacker and shot him dead with it. He was not charged with anything.

There is clearly a racial double standard of "justice" in Manhattan courts, just as there is a two tier justice system there based on politics.

If it did not appear in the Daily Worker, Bobbie does not believe it.

The American people clearly think the same thing as that British newspaper. That's why a solid majority of them in a poll agreed with the contention that "the FBI is Biden's personal Gestapo".

It’s cool that he stepped up and did something. But he did murder that guy. He didn’t have to kill him. Had the man been white I think the jury would have convicted him

I hear the national inquirer thinks the same thing.

That medal proposed for Penny is the highest honor that can be given by the United States to a civilian. I wish Congress had gotten moving on that earlier. He deserves it for protecting those people on the subway car.

Here is a positive sign. A bill has been introduced in Congress to award Daniel Penny a medal for heroism for his action to save those riding the subway from the thug.

"The left can no longer ignore the FBI's shameful targeting of conservatives" reads a headline in a major British newspaper, the "Daily Telegraph" of London and the subhead is "The question is not whether Kash Patel is qualified to be director, but whether he is the disruptor needed to bring real reform."
