Sharia Law banned in many locales. Authors wonder why this is happening?
News | 17 July 2019 | Dustin Gardiner and Mark Olalde

Posted on 07/21/2019 6:07:26 AM PDT by MeneMeneTekelUpharsin

An article has been published in the Nashville Tennessean and folks need to go read it. It talks about "copycat" legislation being passed across thousands of locales banning the implementation of Sharia Law. The main thing I wanted to point out is that this long article gives almost NO information on what Sharia Law actually entails, but is only bent on saying that people are discriminating against muslims.

Logically, why would one implement a law system that directly contradicts in many ways the present system of law? Why implement a system of law that allows cutting off hands and beheading for punishment when the present system does not allow that? And, many other things in Sharia Law do not work with our system. So, why try to get that established? Takeover. That is all it could be. And, the media that publishes this trash is advocating for such. The media IS the enemy when they do that.

It is time to bring this stuff to a screeching halt and punish people who try to get Sharia Law passed. No more. We're not going to do it.

Remember, the main thing I am pointing out is that this long article mentions instance after instance of where muslims believe THEY are suffering discrimination and almost NO mention of what Sharia Law would entail that would eventually make any perceived discrimination a reality for those of us who live here who do NOT and will NOT live under Sharia law. At the point of death, we can NOT allow this to get started.

This stuff HAS to stop. Can't publish any of the article due to copyright complaint, but can sure comment about it here. Thank God for Free Republic.

Sharia is incompatible with US laws and Constitution. It has no place in this country.

This is a long article which complains about copycat legislation (so what?) being implemented to make sure that Sharia Law does not get passed. The last part posted above IS THE ONLY MENTION OF ACTUAL PRACTICE OF SHARIA ANYWHERE IN THE ARTICLE. The authors do not give ANY other details about what is involved with Sharia Law and its enforcement. This is beyond the pale.

The REASON for banning of Sharia law Is that it contradicts in many instances OUR constitution. WHY would we allow a separate system of law from a different religious foundation to be established HERE? That would be insanity. It is time to start punishing people for advocating this stuff. No more words.

The mention that the legislator showed pictures of a severed hand and beheading as an example of Sharia Law, not that Sharia actually enforces law that way. They do not mention ONE instance of actual Sharia law dictates or enforcement ANYWHERE in the entire article. What dishonesty!!!

No true conservative would use Sharia rhetorically against progressives, that is not who we are.

One of the more ridiculous statements on Sharia law:
"Normal Americans have difficulty understanding where Sharia Law ends and U.S. laws begins"

FREEPER DJ FRISAT ASTUTELY RESPONDS: it's not difficult and not confusing.
This is America. This is OUR government. We have laws established by our legislators that we have approved.
Sharia law is not part of our justice system....and never will be.

We might also add.......attempts to substitute Sharia law for US law must be seen as a calculated
attempt to overthrow the US government and should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of US law.

======================================

ACTION NOW:

AMERICANS DEMAND AN EXECUTIVE ORDER, REGULATIONS, RULES,
A CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT TO ENSHRINE IN US LAW THAT

all attempts to substitute Sharia law for US law must be seen as a calculated attempt
to overthrow the US government and is to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of US law.

Sharia is a competing constitution with one intent..... to supplant the hosts constitution.

All muslims are an invasive enemy force with one objective in mind which is codified in the Koran.... that is to work towards the global domination, a Caliphate.

All muslims are obliged to follow the wish of Allah or they are infidels. Infidelity is punishable by death.

This procedure calls for the erasure of every piece of the hosts identity and history.

Islam needs to be viewed as a metasizing cancer, and should be treated ike cancer.... eradicated through irradiation.

...this article mentions the self-serving Muslims believe THEY are suffering discrimination in the US........
but there's NO mention that Sharia Law would mitigate discrimination against the unruly bunch....
or even be beneficial to those of us who live here who do NOT (and will NOT) live under Sharia law......

There are 50 countries around the world that identify as Islamic.

There’s something sinister about the bunch whining for “civil rights”.....complaining about Christians in a decidedly Christian country like America.

Why do Muslims need America to legitimize themselves?

They whine about making sure people feel represented.

Balderdash———Islam is all about “triumphalism”.....getting power over infidels.

The word “Islam” means submission.

These people are plotting, lying-in-wait to force submission to Islam and to install Sharia law in our nation. ....using our Congress and our laws.

We cannot rest til these people are unceremoniously kicked out of our country.

The Leftist scum will taunt you with it till you break, or you can taunt them with it and then tell them to eff off and die if they try and implement it. I’m not a repsectable dittohead conservative I taunt lefties using other lefty nonsense, it’s fun.

If you want Sharia Law then go to a country where that is the law already. I’m sick of people coming to a new place and then trying to implement the very things that caused them to flee.

The same leftists who demand anything Christian be removed from the public square, because nothing should be tainted by religion, fully support Islamic law being imposed on everyone.

65% of European Muslims believe that Sharia law is more important than the law of their country. Source: https://www.wzb.eu/sites/default/files/u6/koopmans_englisch_ed.pdf#page=2

Not sure why ours would be much different.

Some Sharia highlights:

Sharia is the legal system in Islam. It is a body of rules derived from Koran verses and historical narrations of Mohammed’s life. Sharia trumps all man-made laws, including our Constitution and Bill of Rights. Muslims believe Sharia applies to everyone, including non-Muslims.

Sharia is violent, openly bigoted toward non-Muslims, and brutally sexist. It is explicitly opposed to religious freedom, freedom of speech, freedom of conscience, and the free exchange of ideas.

Sharia is mandatory for Muslims (Koran 5:48). They are not permitted to pick and choose which parts to follow. (Koran 33:36)

Any government that limits Sharia in any way is the enemy of Allah and must be fought. (Sahih Muslim 1:33, and many more)

The establishment of Sharia is a fundamental objective of every Muslim. (Koran 9:29)

Sharia directly violates at least our First, Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Eighth, and Thirteenth Amendments.

Large sections of Sharia govern the practice of slavery. Slavery has been a part of Islam since its beginning and is still practiced to this day. The Koran actually devotes more verses to making sure that Muslim men know they can keep women as rape slaves (four) than it does to telling them to pray five times a day (zero). (Koran 33:50, 4:24, 23:5-6, 8:69)

Now how many of you want Muslims in our armed forces, our police force, or our government?

More here: http://archive.is/SEA1P

A sampling of what the death cult of Islam teaches about women:

Men are in charge of women. Koran 4:34
Men decide how women dress. Koran 33:59
Women can be beaten. Tabari IX:113
Women are stupid. Sahih Bukhari 6:301
Women must cover themselves. Koran 24:31 and 33:59
Women cannot travel without a man. Sahih Bukhari 52:250
A woman’s court testimony is worth only half of a man’s. Koran 2:283
A rape can only be proven by the confirmation of four male witnesses or a confession by the rapist. Koran 24:4
Rape victims are criminals. http://archive.is/SonV6

Under Sharia:
Wives can be beaten. Koran 4:34
Wives cannot refuse sex. Sunan Ibn Majah 1853
Raping your wife is allowed. Koran 2:223, Fatwa No. 33597
Wives can be raped in any position. Sunan Abu Dawud 2159
Wives should stay in abusive marriages. Sahih Bukhari 72:715
The most important thing a woman brings to marriage is unrestricted access to her vagina. Sahih Bukhari 62:81
The Koran devotes MORE verses to making sure that Muslim men know they can keep women as rape slaves (four) than it does to telling them to pray five times a day (zero).
An imam in South Carolina stated that a husband is the owner and rule of a wife, who must obey him as his prisoner. http://archive.is/wQwW4

Islamic scholar al-Ghazali says in The Revival of Religious Sciences that a Muslim woman must:
stay at home
not go out often
not be well-informed
not be communicative with neighbors
satisfy her husband in everything
be ready to satisfy her husband’s sexual needs at any moment
Eleven of the twelve countries with the highest rate of discrimination against women are Muslim-majority countries. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NXtIUv5i2w

Islam is hate. Islam is slavery. Islam is death.

The greatest threat to Islam is an informed population, because only an informed population can undermine the ideology that gives rise to Islam.

Read the Koran for yourself. Know what Muslims know - not what they tell you.

FIGHT BACK by educating yourself and sharing what you’ve learned with others.

Thank you! My thoughts exactly! In whose universe, what mindset, does it make sense to remove “don’t murder” and allow it to be replaced with beheadings in the public square?

When talking about Sharia Law it seems as if a lot of people try to make it sound like a simple, benign system of
religious rules and that banning it is akin to refusing to allow Orthodox Jews keep kosher. It’s not hard to understand that this is far from being the case.

Read the Koran for yourself. Know what Muslims know - not what they tell you.


To understand the koran is not a straight forward proposition like reading the Bible or the Torah. The koran is given in two parts - the first is a plagiarism of the Bible and the Torah and was abrogated by Mohammad. These are the suras that sound or echo the Bible and the Torah.

The second half constitutes the last lords of allah to Mohammad and therefor superseed the first half. These suras cite the command to kill or convert all kafir (us). These suras are the legitimate (as far as Mohammad was concerned) Islam.

To divine the intentions of each sura, read the Sunnahs and Hadiths - they are stories of the life and sayings attributed to Mohammad: Talibari, Muslim, Isaq and Bukhari.

Sha(t)ria law is a theopolitical system that
elevates itself ABOVE any nation’s laws,
therefore declaring itself to be a ‘law of
conquest’, which is in direct opposition
to the U.S. Constitution, and The Bill Of Rights.

“The bill, which passed on a 44-24 vote, would declare void any court ruling that relies “in whole or in part on any foreign law” that doesn’t match U.S. or Idaho protections for due process, freedom of religion, speech, press, privacy or marriage. It doesn’t specifically mention Islamic Sharia law, but that’s been the focus of debate over Redman’s proposal.”

In other words, judges are forbidden to make rulings which take non-US laws into account.
