Sharron Angle: Sharia taking hold in parts of US
2010-10-08
True or not, it's the attitude we need if we're going to get government away from the idea that "although all terrorists are muslim, muslims are not terrorists."

#9  Jews follow their laws 1st in some ways, too.
:)

Where in the hell you think The Law comes from?
Follow those laws, won't have much problem with civil law, except Red Light Cams on Saturday.

#8  Friction between Muslims and Christian evangelists at an Arab festival in Dearborn is hardly evidence of sharia taking over.

I wish she'd shut up about religion entirely until after the election. It's too easy to turn her off-the-cuff comments against her, and they did a good job of doing that,

#7  Go to parts of MSP and Detroit suburbs if you want to see what happens. They are the harbingers for the US future. Londonistan is the next stop.

#5  Just last month pastor Terry Jones became a scandalous figure because he threatened to exercise his 1st Amendment rights to free exercise of religion and free speech in a manner that would have violated Sharia law.

Government, both local and federal, pressured him to waive his rights until he relented.

And that's just one recent example.

#4  @ #3 ... not exactly so.
Teh Jews have religious laws that work in accordance with US law and their 'laws' and practices do not supersede it.
It is also practiced voluntarily.
Big differences.

#3  Unfortunately - Jews follow their laws 1st in some ways, too.

#2  I don't know much about the domestic US situation in relation to sharia.

But I do know one thing that is spot on:

Only US laws should be enforced on US soil. NO SHARIA LAW. You can NOT have 2 competing legal systems.

In Australia it is a nightmare of 'multiculturalism' where tribal Aboriginal law is allowed alongside other laws.

Now Muslims want to use that as an excuse for them to have Sharia law. No. We should have one set of laws for all, and all are equal before the law.

We will have separation of religion and state, and have NO legally enforceable precepts from holy men.

With the Aborigines it is more complex. We came and imposed ourselves on them, so there is some fairness for them to argue for tribal law. But everyone else: no.
