#2 I would think the laws are already in place to prevent Sharia in a free society -- although I believe the laws are in place to prevent illegal immigration, too...

#4 I would like to see the Catholics, Jews (and any other group who has non-liberal standards) demand the same set of legal standards for their beliefs...abortion is wrong, divorce is wrong, etc.; and see if the courts and liberals in the United Kingdom would support them.
Just sayin', ya' know.

#5 Muslims Against Sharia praise Congressman Tancredo's initiative. We advocated similar measures in the past and fully support "Gihad Prevention Act"

"Any person from a country where a substantial part of the population is pro-Sharia should not be allowed in the West, not only as an immigrant, but even as a visitor with a few exceptions, i.e., political asylum or as a diplomat etc. ... Every legal immigrant should be allowed to stay only if he/she did not display desire to establish a Sharia state in a host country. Any naturalized citizen who displays a desire to establish a Sharia state in a host country should have his/her citizenship revoked and promptly deported. I think the latter two groups is where the real danger lies." Linda Ahmed, FrontPage Magazine, July 24, 2008

"Anyone who proclaims Islamic extremist views should be tried for sedition, since we are at war with radical Islam, or at the very least, promptly deported." Khalim Massoud, FrontPage Magazine, September 9, 2008

#6 That's good to know, Muslims Against Sharia. Thank you. I'm not sure about not allowing visitors, though. I mean, you clearly have the right attitude, and you are Muslim. Do you have any ideas how we could encourage others like you?
