Sharia Law in the U.S.... I hope it happens...

[T-Bone]

Sharia Law in the U.S.... I hope it happens in one city or town only. Why? So liberals can see the danger in it.

So maybe that's what we need... a pilot program to see if it's any good. I know Sharia Law is neither good nor scholarly, but liberals don't. So give the liberals Sharia... then when they see gays and women treated as 2nd class citizens, liberals can challenge Sharia rulings to the SCOTUS to have Sharia rulings struck down.

When Alabama voted to ammend its Constitution to ban Consideration of Sharia, liberals went nutz!!

So, does a pilot program Seem Like a reasonable plan? Seems like liberals love Sharia.

Sounds like Alabama did something smart. Too bad no one will give them credit for it, because it's Alabama.

So where are these liberals who want Sharia law in the US?

 

[Islam Imamate]

Sharia law is inherently unconstitutional because it would be a pretty obvious violation of the Establishment Clause. This is why some liberals don't care for the conservative paranoia exhibited by the likes of Alabama; you're creating a redundant laws to make yourself feel better. This is not what taxpayers should be paying for, our lawmakers should be productive and not passing redundant laws to non-existent problems

So your whole idea is pretty silly and not at all a reasonable plan.

They may not want it but they indirectly support it with their support for diversity and multiculturalism.

they are just trolling because they are assholes. southern states can't be bothered to tackle real problems, they have to create boogeymen so people will avoid asking them questions like "how come our schools suck" and "why is the governor spending millions of dollars on hookers."

which isn't saying much considering these are people who forgave that duggar fuck because he "sought forgiveness from jesus" which no longer makes him a creepy child molesting fuckface. so expecting them to not cry at the very mention of the world "muslim" is asking a bit too much of them.

If you think showing liberals more examples of their policies backfiring would change their minds, you obviously haven't looked into all the most expensive cities in the country, highest crime rates, or budget deficits.

Both @T-Bone and @sloppypie are being an ass on opposite ends of the spectrum.

It's getting close to that in Deerborn Michigan right now.

What's hillarious is that the only real legal effect of a ban on "sharia law" is a restriction on the freedom of contract, something that used to matter to conservatives.
Sharia is not and cannot be implemented by the government here. The only place it can really exist is in private contracts and only to the extent they comply with the law.

The UK (and other places in Europe) has a real problem with Sharia. Better to be proactive. Best to not even have to deal with the issue in the first place.

T-Bone wants something bad to happen to the USA so that his position is validated. Reminds me of the thread wishing for a WMD to be used on Europe.

If that were only true. The issue is that Sharia is inherently geared against women, and many will comply with the Sharia court ruling because they care more about Allah's law than they do some western, man-made government.
So while you're right on paper, it's not reality in practice.

Well you can't ban voluntary compliance with a religious court unless the action itself is illegal. A sharia court has the same amount 9f legal force me telling you not to eat pork. We can't outlaw your choice to comply with my demand though.

And that's the problem.

There isn't an equivalent of Sharia in any other religion so comparing it to religious-based contracts of other faiths is an apples/oranges comparison.

Granted, this is an extreme example, but it's not something you're going to find in other faiths:

Outlawing Sharia law changes the legality of this how? It's still conspiracy to commit murder whether sharia is outlawed or not. Outlawing Sharia has absolutely zero effect on this scenario. The only thing it does is outlaw explicitly incorporating sharia terms into contracts.

On this scenario, it wouldn't have meant anything. That was an illustration of Sharia law. It's not some benign legal system. It's brutal and barbaric in today's world. Stoning for adultery is part of Sharia.

I don't mean to come off as an ass here, but this whole discussion strikes me as extremely naivete. Preventing a separate, parallel legal system from detrimentally affecting people is a great thing. Many women who get fucked over in Sharia courts are pressured not to seek further redress, and it often costs them lots of money in legal fees, too.

Stop the bullshit before it happens.

Theresa May says many Britons ‘BENEFIT GREATLY’ from Sharia Law
So not only do women get screwed over via Sharia, some people on the left are enablers - even women themselves.

I'd rather not deal with that at all.

If a state had enough crazies to pass Sharia, would they also not have enough crazies to repeal this new law?
