Sherman logan,

“If and when their following sharia law rather than US law causes them to break US law, then arrest and prosecute them?”

I was going to put the issue to you in this manner:

they said they would break the US law if it conflicted with sharia

But you answered it already, that if they broke US law, they should be arrested and prosecuted.

Oliviaforever,

Do you agree, that if that group breaks US law in the course of going with sharia law, that they be arrested and prosecuted?

Our laws ignore sharia. As it should.

Let us assume a sharia “court” in this country issues a death penalty. Any attempt to enforce that ruling would be attempted murder, and would expose all participants in the “court” proceeding to trial on conspiracy to murder. Of course, if the sentence was carried out, all would be guilty of conspiracy to commit murder in the first degree.

I’d have no problem with a death penalty.

Yes.

Any violation of the state and federal law by the group or member should be prosecuted in a real court.
