Togerson needs an education in the First Amendment if she hopes to hold office.
Here is what Mrs. Torgerson has to say about Islam.
What is freedom of religion? When one thinks about it, religion is primarily one’s freedom to choose which god or gods to worship. Correct? Religion is really not primarily behavior. Rather, it is faith. And of course, certain behaviors attend certain religions. However, I think we can all agree that religion does not include criminal behavior. Correct? And also, it should therefore follow that the advocacy of criminal behavior is not religion. Correct?
And thus, we come to the teachings of Islam, or the Quran. The Quran actually teaches Muslims to kill people not of their faith, which are labeled infidels, which includes Christians and Jews, as well as people of other faiths. (”Slay the idolaters wherever you find them, and take them captives and besiege them and lie in wait for them in every ambush. (Sura 9:5)). This is advocating criminal behavior. Thus, at a minimum, this portion of the religion of Islam cannot be protected by the First Amendment to the United States Constitution. This portion is not “religion” recognizable under the First Amendment of the United States Constitution.
The Quran also says that if a person leaves Islam, that that is an offence mandating death. Recently, a Harvard Muslim Chaplain, Taha Abdul-Basser, stated that apostates (those who leave Islam) should be killed, although he stated that they could only be killed by a legitimate Muslim governmental authority and cannot be performed by a non-state, private actors. Again, this is advocating criminal behavior. Again, this is not allowing all people the right to freedom of religion. Thus, the Quran conflicts with the First Amendment to the United States Constitution and our criminal laws. Thus, the total “religion” of Islam is not fully protectable by our First Amendment to the United States Constitution.
Further, evidently, the goal of Islam is to Islamize the entire world, or, global Islam. I believe there is a term, “ummah” that reflects this goal. Well, this goal also conflicts with our First Amendment to the United States Constitution.
Islam is sedition. Jihad, treason.
What a keeper! We need more leaders like her!
I like your new web site. I wonder how long until the Islamofacists target you again?
Islam is not a race. It’s a theo-fascist ideology.
We’re on dangerous ground here...
