"...if we want to have a free society, the first thing we need to do is erect a system that has the ability to punish any violation of the NAP in some way."

Sadly, you seem unable to grasp that erecting a facility nominal to police the very private parts of free people's families will be a prize sought with every possible Machiavellian intrigue by evil people seeking power.

While it's great that you and I agree on genital mutilation, the truth is that were we to assume the power to enforce our will on the world, we'd become the very tyrants we most despise. Other people don't agree. I can't assume responsibility for their minds, nor their children.

There are far worse people than you and I eagerly awaiting this power, for the most malignant perversion of justice imaginable. That is the true power of a free society - that it precludes tyranny.

Reality is such that our opinions matter to our families because we are free to act on them regarding circumcision. Consider if such power is granted the state, and state officials are bribed to subvert our wills. The freedom to not circumcise our kids can be prevented, and the state could force us to have them clipped.

This is a power that needs must never be granted the state.

The fact also is that reason and sanity are contagious, and circumcision is waning despite efforts to keep it common by institutions. Freedom is working right now, and granting more power to the state is exactly the kind of thing that can turn that on it's head.

'Save the children' is ever the refrain of totalitarianism used to gull people into granting power over themselves. It's being done right now regarding the FL shooting. It is the exact argument you are making here, too.

If the enemedia were saying 'folks that care about kids shouldn't shoot them.' I'd agree 100%. What they're saying is 'everyone must be disarmed so that our kids can be safe from being shot.' A lot of people don't want children to be shot, myself included. But arming those kids is the best way to keep them safe from being shot, and that's why I taught my kids to shoot.

We can succeed at protecting children best from being abused by using reason, rather than force. Folks won't all agree, but subjecting everyone to the power of the state to enforce what is reasonable WILL be abused, and will end up with far worse evils being done to ALL our kids by the psychopaths that pursue such edifices of power.

To even dream otherwise is hopelessly naive.
