Almost choked on my steak when I saw: “First, there is the cultural prerogative of persons to choose which laws they wish to be subject to.” Then I noticed the story’s source.

Who knew that we could pick and choose the laws that applied to us?

“First, there is the cultural prerogative of persons to choose which laws they wish to be subject to. Islam has a long and storied history and a legal structure that has been in place for centuries—pre-dating, I’d like to point out, the constitutions and laws of every state now in existence....” Not in the United States. They have a choice to be here or not be here. This isn’t like American Indians who insist they have the religious freedom to eat peyote. They were here first, doing whatever it was that they were doing first. Even then there are many things they were doing that they are no longer allowed to do according to the laws of the land. If Muslims can’t conform to our laws at the expense of sharia law, which is barbaric, they should leave. There should be extra years added to sentences given to Muslims who use Sharia as a defense for breaking our laws.

If we are going to have Sharia Law, can we have Vatican Law too?

Or is Islam the only religion exempt from the mythical doctrine of "separation of church and state?"

It’s the lawyers union advocating legal ambiguity so they
can line their pockets in court debating the
various flavors of law. More laws to keep them
employed. More lawyer’s union lobbying for
job protection.
