Extend the statute of limitations for baby boy circumcisions to 40 years. It would remove the money motive that the health industry has when recommending, performing, or facilitating circumcisions. It would also lead to more public awareness of the dangers of circumcision, changing the culture.

The statute of limitations for medical malpractice is anywhere from two to six years. But the effects of a circumcision performed on a baby boy cannot be fully known until he is 30, or 40 years old. If the statute of limitations were to be extended to 40 years, victims of circumcision could at least get some kind of compensation for their pain and suffering. If the health industry decided to take it to court, the victims would also be able to tell their story, in a court of law, under oath and it would become part of a public record. Circumcision litigation would be so lucrative that ambulance chasing law firms would put ads on TV about it. Which would increase the public's awareness of the dangers, physical and economic, of circumcision. it would completely eliminate the money motive that the health industry has towards circumcision. Finally, it would change America's attitude toward circumcision.

New homeopathy scam in the streets where the man offers you tailored health advice, only to be redirected to a shop. The accomplice then arrives out of nowhere to testify and coerce their victims, mostly labourers to said shop

I was walking outside today near computer plaza and there were a few men who appeared to be unrelated to each other and minding their own business. I walked towards McDonald's from Jumbo near the footbridge when suddenly this guy interrupts me and advices me to eat Black Seeds (Nigella seeds) as it is good for my health. It's like 11AM and these guys were hanging around in the shadow of the footbridge.

Now there is nothing wrong with this advice, black seeds are nutritious so I assumed that was the end of it.

Then he continues that it helps the eyes (saying my spectacle power is high). He goes on about mixing it with dabur blah blah from so and so shop located around the block.

Another man apparently randomly passing by overhears me and stops to confirm what he said. Saying he was helped. Then he opened his phone and showed me his picture with big spectacles saying this is from before.. Even though according to his own album it was pretty recently taken as he didn't have to scroll much...

I said enough enough and went back to the footbridge and in the meantime he immediately caught the pathan guy (victim) who was just coming there to pay for the parking. The victim had no spectacles πŸ‘“ which made me curious what he would advise him for.

I started video recording as I climbed the footbridge of this. I posted this before but u/nor_iqhwan reminded me of consequences so I had to remove it...

Funnily, towards the end of the video, after he was convinced about how to improve his "hair quality" you see him asking him to have patience..as the accomplice had already started to coerce him and walkikg in the direction of the shop.

The victim insists He wants to pay first what he came for! - The Parking!

And then the victim follows him..hopefully he did not fall prey. During my limited observation there, they targeted only labourers. And left non labourers easily with the slightest resistance...

Unfortunately, I cannot post my FULL HD 60 FPS video of a Dubai scam in progress πŸ˜… due to reasons above Might as well be 4K. I would love to share it if the rules change. It's pretty funny (and sad at the same time) to see it happen. The accomplice takes off his cap and the victim is seen frisking his hair to check his hair quality vs his old pic of baldness πŸ˜‚. The ending was funny too as the victim appeared momentarily agitated from his coercion as he really wanted to pay his parking (his original purpose of walking there!)

There are hundreds of huge 17th and 18th century country manor mansions in Great Britain and Ireland, all of them with incredibly intricate and lavish interior design. Who were the people who built them? Was it local general labourers or private companies with trained staff?

I’ve been a builder for three months now, and since I started I can’t help but scan every room I’m in to see how it was built. It’s given me new appreciation and insight into how exactly rooms take form. Even just a simple room with minimal interior construction (skirting boards, plasterboard, light fixtures) can take a team of builders, electricians, plasterers etc. days to finish, due to the sheer amount of precision required.

I’ve visited many country houses in Ireland, and I’m struck by the excessive interior design, I simply can’t imagine how such rooms were constructed in the past with simpler tools, less developed engineering and less labourer skill.

So my question is were these rooms designed and planned by a small number of skilled individuals who then delegated to a staff of general labourers or did large private companies of the time train and supply teams of skilled builders?

Why Statute of Limitations is Key - Boy Scouts now, WTBTS next

This is a perfect example of why it is so important that states either eliminate the statute of limitations on CSA cases or at a minimum, create windows of opportunity for once excluded cases to come forward.

And the next step is to get the word out and make it visible to the public as broad as possible. So victims long since silenced know they have the opportunity to seek justice.

Look forward to the day the org shares a similar headline. As we know they have a list at least twice the size as the one mentioned in this case.

β€œMany of the lawsuits followed the Los Angeles Times’ publication in 2012 of internal Scout records involving about 5,000 men on a blacklist known as the β€œperversion files,” a closely guarded trove of documents that details sexual abuse allegations against troop leaders and others dating back a century.”

The State of Wisconsin violated Steven and Brendan's 14 amendment civil rights to due process of US law,Wisconsin violated Statute 968.205 by not notifying Steven and Brendan's lawyers before disposing of evidence in their case that could exonerate both of them.

Their 14 amendment rights to due process were also violated by Kratz's press conference professing guilt before either individual ever stepped in a court room, under the US constitution, you are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Steven and Brendan's 14 amendment rights were violated once again by LE not allowing a coroner on the Avery property to properly assess, document and recover the supposed human remains found in Steven's fire pit, a civil right that is afforded by law to every other in the US

The 14 amendment violation continue to grow in Steven and Brendan's cases along with numerous brady violations(6), When will they be treated as equal US citizens and qualify for due process US law, the same law afforded to everyone else in the US,the same law Wisconsin fails to recognize and obey.
