“The way to combat this is to use the same method against Muslims as was used against polygamous Mormons: that their religion is unconstitutional”

Was the belief in polygamy declared unconstitutional? In the USA? I doubt it. Probably, laws were passed making polygamy illegal.

Our Constitution forbids the US to outlaw a religion. Now I guess European countries (or Canada) can make laws to forbid a religion, or give it special privileges, because they believe in group rights, also known as muticulturalism, or mob rule. Anyway when a European, or a Canadian (or maybe a Californian) utters the words “democracy” or “rights” he doesn’t mean the same thing that we in the USA do.

The U.S. is about individual rights. So instead of outlawing religious “beliefs in murder” we just outlaw the murder. Now, we don’t necessarily have to wait for some teenage girl to be shot by her father or brother. Conspiracy to commit the murder is also a crime against the individual.

We should vigorously prosecute honor killings, apostate killings, and dhimmi killings, or any other form human slaughter with religion NOT being a mitigating factor. In other words being a muslim cannot be a justification for doing these things just as being, say, a Jehova’s witness cannot excuse a parent from denying his child a blood transfusion.
