Both of you: retards.

I'm against this piece of shit sucking babies dicks and spreading fatal herpes to infants, and for whatever reason, you two self righteous fucks think I'm in the wrong, for thinking an old pedophile killing children is bad?

Grow the fuck up, and maybe waste your time on something that's a little more productive, than attempting to insult me, which I really don't give a fuck about. Go ahead, call me whatever you want, it literally does nothing.

I will go on continuing to think this stupid fuck should go to jail, and you will continue being a couple of douches. :)
Cest la vie.

OOH, watch out, we've got ourselves a little Ms. Superior Canucklehead!

Could be...but I doubt it.

Well, it is a real practice and well documented, so......

I've heard warnings that the virus can leak into the newborns ears and enter the brain, effectively killing them. I dunno if that's true, but it would make more sense in this case, since genital herpes sticks to below the waist...there are 2 kinds: HSV1 and HSV2. I'm no expert, wish there was a Dr on here who could confirm it. Also, infants get something called impetigo and that's what that looks like...it's similar to herpes but they grow out of it...

I tend to think the specific baby in this picture has contracted herpes from the mother during birth, due to the location of the outbreak. HSV1 and HSV2 can infect thr genitals and face, they aren't limited to either or, but the lesions tend to be located where the contact was made.

It's unlikely a person contracting herpes from oral contact on their genitals with have lesions where this baby does.

I think it's a case of true story, wrong pic.

Did you read any of the links provided? This IS happening.

I actually located this baby's image on the following site:http://www.med.cmu.ac.th/dept/pediat...l-hsv/case.htm

It states that this baby is suffering from neonatal herpes simplex virus, and that the lesions began on the scalp.

Someone's taken the pic and attributed it to the news stories.

I have heard of this practice of sucking the blood off a newly circumcised baby, and there is a scriptural basis for it. In recent times, the latest and newest invention is a suction tube that the Rabbi "sucks" blood without actual mouth to genital contact because of cases like this My pen pals in Finland tell me circumcision is not legal in their country, no one is circumcised there.

How in the fuck does anyone justify this old man sucking an infants penis? God damn get a clue people !

it's a jewish tradition. Not in any way trying to blame ..or like be racist. This is my first post. I'm scared of doing something wrong. heh.. But, it's normal for the dude who does the circumcision to also, suck the blood. It's a known problem in communities where this is done. Unfortunately.
