I have read the report Shariah: The Threat to America available for free at www.shariahthethreat.com. I also ordered it from amazon just to have a hard copy. This is a very important work put together by a serious group of people.

In all likelihood, there will be video available after the event.

the threat to America isn't Sharia. The threat to America is that we have enshrined in law the "right" to kill unborn infants, and turned doing so into an industry; it's that we can't muster the moral courage to enforce standards of "community decency," and so pornography has become an "industry," and probably one of our few exports. It's that our legal system managed to enable the starvation-to-death of a disabled young woman, whose parents spend themselves, unsuccessfully, to win the right to feed her.

Being overrun by its enemies is what happens to a nation that does what we have done.

Thanks for the info. With groups offering the PC version of Islam to foster “tolerance and acceptance”, too many are completely blnd to what Sharia Law is and what it means to our rule of law. We cannot allow this to get a solid foothold within our country.

When our United States first formed, the individual states acknowledged the English Common Law as the basis of law for our courts. (Reception Statutes.) I believe all states but Louisiana followed suit. (Louisiana accepted the Roman Civil Law which later became an issue in harmonizing uniform building codes.)

For instance, in 1850, California adopted the common law of England (Ca. Stats., pg. 219,), so far as not repugnant to or inconsistent with the Constitution of the United States or laws of the State, as the rule of decision in all the courts of the State. (You can find some discussion of this in early water law cases in the West where riparian rights followed the common law and appropriative law followed the Roman Civil/Spanish law. California ended up in a dual system as applies to water because established mineral claims followed appropriative law. )

I imagine Sharia law would have the same status as Canon or ecclesiastic law, which might inform the court as to beliefs and customary practices of devotees but certainly not take precedence over rights and liberties secured by the Constitutions and laws of the United States and individual states.
