Louis Farrakhan: Black America must demand its own court system
The Conservative Voices ^ | 24 Feb 2014

You failed us.” According to the article: Farrakhan suggested that African Americans rely on the Quran and Bible to help set up their own legal system that would be more fair to African Americans. “Has America been just to us?” he asked the crowd. “No,” the crowd responded “So … if we retaliate, you can bring out your soldiers. We got some, too.” Farrakhan, 80, said he hoped new “white mayor” Mike Duggan would be successful in restoring all of Detroit, not just “downtown.” “First time in a long time you’ve had a white mayor.

During his talk, Farrakhan denied he was anti-Semitic, saying: “Did Jesus have a problem with the Jews of his day? You’re “slaughtering your own people for America” and the “European infidel,”

Time to divide the United States into quadrants. (1) gays; (2) blacks and any other minority wishing to align with them; (3) liberals; and 4) conservatives.

They could create a whole new set of affirmative defenses and excuses, too, for example, the “he dissed me” defense to assault, the “she a ho” defense to sexual battery, etc.

With Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., and Detroit City Council President Brenda Jones sitting behind him, Farrakhan spoke for nearly three hours,..................I guess they agree with or are sympathetic with this idiot.

Black robs White.
White goes on trial, found GUILTY.

If American Muslims want their own courts, they should immigrate to Islamic countries where there are Islamic courts ... but if they wish to remain in this country and be Americans, they are subject to the same laws and avail themselves of the same imperfect systems of courts and justice as the rest of America.
