Muslims living in America should not be bound by U.S. law, according to a leader of the Council on American-Islamic Relations, who delivered the controversial message to a crowd at a Muslim rally in Austin, Texas.
“If we are practicing Muslims, we are above the law of the land,” said Mustafa Carroll, executive director of the Dallas-Fort Worth CAIR branch.
........
The organizers said one major issue discussed “was the recent House and Senate bill proposals involving the implementation of ‘anti-Shariah’ legislation, where the First Amendment rights and freedoms of Muslims would ultimately be hindered.”
........
Carroll’s statement was similar to a statement allegedly made by CAIR co-founder and former chairman Omar M. Ahmad. He was paraphrased by a reporter saying, “Islam isn’t in America to be equal to any other faith, but to become dominant” and the Quran “should be the highest authority in America, and Islam the only accepted religion on Earth.”
........
“When you even say the word Shariah, people get nervous. We are not advocating for Shariah. We are not trying to make Shariah the law of the land,” he said.
Carroll claimed Muslims only want the “right to practice our faith.”
........
Carroll is on record defending Hamas, classified by the U.S. as a terrorist group.
“I think you can only blame Hamas for so long. It takes two to tango. And I think, you know, that what we’ve heard for a number of years is this terrorist, terrorist, terrorist, terrorist, Hamas, Hamas, Hamas, was not just Hamas,” he’s said.
At CAIR’s Dallas banquet in 2007, Carroll denied the Quran is the source of terrorism.

The fact that millions of mooslims are exempt from Obamacare...but still get treated at emergency departments anyway....is an effective tax on the rest of American citizens.
This is why — precisely why — I oppose Freedom of Religion. Islam should not be tolerated in any civil society that values the rule of law.
Dhimmitude.. By the way, 0bama the Muslim has proven himself to be above the law as well.
My rifle (which is my sword) says otherwise.
“If we are practicing Muslims, we are above the law of the land,” said Mustafa Carroll, executive director of the Dallas-Fort Worth CAIR branch.
***Almost tagline worthy
That's right. Because it's not a religion. It's a totalitarian political movement masquerading as a religion to get legitimacy.
No contradiction with the Establishment Clause. We can tolerate all religions...if they really are just that.
I can understand why muslims feel they are above the law...The one in the White House thinks the same thing..
People need to learn that Islam is not a religion, rather, it is a mercenaries guide to jihad.... the ability to rape, plunder, raid the wealth of others, to take the produce and wealth of the successful and to strip the rights of all others as they march.
Religion is just the beard.
Islam is an evil cancer if allow to go unchecked will kill its host. God gave us free will, his adversary, the Devil, gave us Islands. How do you treat cancer? Chemotherapy and radiation.
Mussies say that they don’t buy health insurance because it’s a form of gambling. I wonder if it’s the same with car insurance or any kind of insurance with them.
I can understand why muslims think they are above the law, the one in the White House thinks the same thing...
It is a tool of the Devil to destroy good

There’s nothing wrong with freedom of religion.
The problem is when lawless acts—those that harm others—are defended in the name of “freedom of religion.”
Muslims cannot legally practice their Sharia and the other murderous tenets of Islam in the United States.
Yep. His Founding Fathers are Marx and Mohammed.
Actually, with Holder running the ‘justice Department’ the murderous mooselimbs ARE above the law.
This cowboy wants to play, too.
The next Crusade will be a war of annihilation, and I don't expect to be on the losing side.
Sharia and a compliant left, are their insurance.
