A family says their newborn son nearly bled to death and is fighting for his life after he was circumcised at a New York City hospital.

Tim and Gabrielle Groth said their son, Cole, underwent the circumcision at NewYork-Presbyterian Morgan Stanley Children’s Hospital in Manhattan, where he was born on March 31.

    Circumcision is barbaric and backwards

    Religion doesn’t get a free pass either. Superstition is no basis for mutilating babies

    America is one of the only places in the world that still thinks this disgraceful practice is OK.

    All because they followed the ideas of a nutter who made cornflakes…

    Shit’s fucked

      Any cosmetic body alteration should only be done according to the will of the body-haver.

      Poor little guy is brand new to the world and just wants sleep, warmth and food. Instead he gets this 💔
