*The state of Oklahoma should just ignore her order. It is called nullification. It is constitutional and part of our laws. Just ignore her stay. It is time to stand up against the evil, out-of-control federal government!*

Exactly!

That's what Arizona should do against the unconstitutional suit brought against them for wanting to protect their border.

Ignore the foolish and the unconstitutional!

Their ruling means nothing.

Any ruling from the UN means less than nothing. It's almost our obligation as Americans to go against any UN legislation that is against us.

IMO the Judges decision has nothing to do with his/her/its
submission to Islam but EVERYTHING to the Judiciary refusing to be held accountable to our US Constitution and their legal
duty by any group of people.The Judge simply thinks He/she/it is now a god chosen by people too stupid to change the role of the Judge.

But exactly what authority does this judge have to block certification of election results?

Exactly. The Secretary of State in OK needs to ignore the stay, certify the results and tell this judge, "Lady, I don't work for you."

But exactly what authority does this judge have to block certification of election results?

The judge has authority to find a State law violates constitutional rights. That is the basis offered here by those behind the lawsuit. If Oklahoma passed a law that said that Islam is not permitted to be practiced in the state, it would violate the First Amendment.The judge could overturn it.

That being said, state judges in Oklahoma are required to apply the law of the state as determined by the legislature. It does not interfere with the complainant's religious freedom to require state judge's to apply only Oklahoma State law. To me it is similar to prosecuting parents who withhold medical treatment to their kids on religious grounds. The state does not allow their unique religious beliefs to excuse child neglect. Here the referendum was really unnecesary because Sharia was not being applied in Oklahoma. But, it did serve the purpose of preventing some goofy judge from applying it in the future.

In any event, the issuance of a temporary injunction is only to prevent enforcement of the law until a final determination is made on the merits. However, in order to issue such a preliminary injunction the court must have decided that the complainant's case has a likelihood of success on the merits. That is a bad sign for the ultimate outcome at this level.Judge Miles-Lagrange is a liberal who will rule with the complainant in this case regardless of how specious his argument is. The Tenth Circuit will likely reverse IMHO.

Knowing Oklahomans the way I do, I can tell you that like us Texans, there's only so much of this commie-Muslim-lawyer crap they're going to take before going Comanche.

"Civil War II" ping.

Ping list monitoring government and leftist agitation and instigation of violence.

FReepmail me if you want on or off The Comedian's "Civil War II" ping list...

Miles-LaGrange was nominated by President William J. Clinton on September 22, 1994, to a seat on the United States District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma vacated by Lee Roy West. She was confirmed by the United States Senate on October 7, 1994, and received her commission on November 28, 1994. She began her service as chief judge in 2008. Photobucket

Late reply.I think we’ll see nullification more and more,once it gets started.

I’m sure it’s in the minds of some.

This won’t go far. If sharia were allowed to be considered, every other type of religious law will have to be considered, including Christianity under the Equal Protection clause. The ACLU won’t stand for that.
