Exclusive — Three Wisconsin Democrat Governor Candidates Say They Would Veto Any Anti-Sharia Legislation

Wisconsin Democrat gubernatorial candidates Francesca Hong, Mandela Barnes, and Kelda Roys each indicated that they would veto any anti-Sharia legislation that reached their desks as governor during a forum co-hosted by two Muslim civic organizations.

The Wisconsin Muslim Civic Alliance and Wisconsin Muslim Civic Foundation co-hosted a “Governor Forum,” which the event’s website described as “bringing together Wisconsin’s Muslim community and allies for an evening of civic dialogue, accountability, and engagement.”

Community members could attend the event for free and submit questions for the gubernatorial candidates.

In a video provided exclusively to Breitbart News, the event host said, “Sharia means path in Arabic and is a set principle to guide Muslims in their personal lives, such as diet, prayer, and marriage as they practice their faith. It’s very similar to Catholic canon law or halakha law in Judaism.”

The host also said such legislation “unfairly targets Muslim religious practice and violates the First Amendment” before asking whether the candidates would veto any anti-Sharia legislation that came across their desks as governor.

Hong, Barnes, and Roys all indicated that they would veto such legislation.

Republican Governors Association Communications Director Kollin Crompton told Breitbart News, “Sharia Law is an extreme ideology, and these radical Democrats are willing to put Sharia Law above Wisconsin values. Wisconsinites will fully reject them.”

The exchange comes as Hong, Barnes, Roys, Lt. Gov. Sara Rodriguez, and former Evers aide Joel Brennan compete in the Democrat primary to succeed Gov. Tony Evers, who is not seeking another term.

Their heads can be chopped off like everyone else.

[Democrat = party of treason]

Traitors, nothing more...

[Da Coyote]

We can only hope that the few real males in that soon to be permanently lost state will rise up and say, “We’ve got your Sharia right here, you goat-boinking SOBs.” Oh, do with your wimpoid semi-male governor what you wish...but televise it, please.

[pgyanke]

We already have anti-sharia legislation. Article IV, Section 4 of the US Constitution.

“The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion…”.

[Vaduz]

Money trails are easy to trace.

[Libloather]

Can Sharia get past the Supremes? Good time to find out.

[DIRTYSECRET]

The good hews is Franchesca Hong could get the nomination and her stand on these issues just might be too much for the rest of the state. The other good news would be Mandela Barnes taking another hit after just barely losing the senate battle to Johnson. The republican Tiffany may be the only voice of moderation. The more these whakos are nipped in the bud the more the unvetted ones will be forced to step up-good for us.

I really don’t get how these Asians could be so leftist like the Boston mayor or that congressman from Ca. Lieu. They’re more structured and disciplined as people and it should point in the conservative direction. The elected ones like that are just bananas who are tired of getting sand kicked in their faces.

They must really hate women.

There are plenty of gun toting males in that state to protect it from such non-sense.

Call your reps and senators and push them to pass /implement legislation blocking sharia or allowing these subhuman muzzie scumbags any foothold in ANY areas of our republic. Japan is doing it correctly. I called my Senator Kennedy from Louisiana and now contacting my representative....Chip Roy out of Texas is presenting anti-muzzie bills...WE NEED TO DO THIS NOW.....this cult of allah will force us to spill their blood on our beautiful soil if we don’t get the laws in place to squash their satanic outlook ...let them play in their own sandboxes they call home...NOT HERE!

[chopperk]

Muslims now own Wisconsin and all the dems....Congrats.

[IYAS9YAS]

Would they veto any anti-Christian legislation?

“Sharia means path in Arabic and is a set principle to guide Muslims in their personal lives, such as diet, prayer, and marriage as they practice their faith. It’s very similar to Catholic canon law or halakha law in Judaism.”

Yeah, sure. Just like Christian canon law or Jewish halacha./sarc

Islamic Law is a Law of Rape. We now have brutal evidence of Muslim Grooming Gangs raping hundreds of thousand of white girls in the UK.

This horror has been going on since the beginning of Islam. Further background information at the link.

“.....I just want my kid back unharmed...”

[frank ballenger]

People who naively said “it can’t happen here” asked who would come out to defend Shariah Law someday. The day has arrived.

See how the dumb feminists will like it being stopped by Muslim police in their car for being a female driving instead of asking a male relative to drive them.

And a federal judge will uphold the women being given lashes in public by a Shairah Law court sentencing them for not wearing a hijab.

RE: Can Sharia get past the Supremes? Good time to find out.

I have as much confidence in the Court ruling in the righteous way as I have in the outcome of a simple coin flip.

As the preacher said in Blazing Saddles: “Son, you’re on your own.”

[Dick Bachert]

Gee, I guess these MORONS have never witnessed what happens to places where islam prevails! Perhaps THIS will help?
