Maine Dems argued legislation was racist.
...
Gideon leveraged her leadership position in the Democrat-controlled legislature to kill two separate bills that would have criminalized the practice of severing the clitoris of infant girls and sewing their vaginas shut.

Under Gideon's leadership, Maine Democrats argued that the bill was racist toward the state's large immigrant community from Somalia, a country where the practice is "nearly universal" according to the United Nations

Gideon's efforts have helped make Maine one of only 12 states that have not banned female genital mutilation.

It’s a gift to the bearded savages, in return for votes and money.
When I was an adjunct professor at a local college, I had many students from different parts of Africa. Many, especially those from Sudan, were quite candid about their dislike of the Somalis.
I hear ya.
So feminists think manspreading is a national problem that deserves to be solved while this is not.
Someone please tweet this story to Trump’s Twitter feed.
Remove her genitals and then get back to me
In the opinions of the DIMocRATS LEFTIST “leaders” anything, no matter how cruel & disgusting, is OK if it gets the DIMs more money, political power & votes.
IF the DIMocRAT LEFTISTS discovered that 1% of “potential voters” wanted to practice cannibalism, the RAT Party would support eating human flesh as “just another alternate lifestyle”.

Whenever rational people begin to think that perhaps Democrat dementia is finally diminishing, up pops another example of it!
