Sharia Law in the United States

Every country in western Europe said that sharia or islamic law would never be enforced there...but it is encrouching in their countries. Maybe not stoning, but there are many parts to sharia. Look at how the women must dress and live even here. Go online and look up islamic law...There is a lot of interesting bits of it online that will knock your socks off. The parts that do not include capital punishment are already enforced amoung the muslims everywhere. Don't kid yourself. It is entwined with their religion and culture. They cannot be separated. Within 10 years, there will be enough muslims in this country to vote for whatever they want if they all vote. Bet your bottom dollar they will vote too. So never say never....

I just could not but laugh out so loud after reading about this absurd and ridiculous proclamation about imposing another equally absurd and ridiculous sharia law on US. But Islam is growing more rapidly than the cancerous cells do in the terminal stage of cancer. God save America!

It is a bit silly to get all outraged about the statements of a religious nutcase. Sharia law is constitutionally impossible in the United States and would have little or no popular support. I have a much broader concern with people who want to write the Old Testament laws into the United States legal code. There is a much broader support base for those who would inflect biblical law on the country and it is just as scary as Sharia law.

As agonizing and repulsive (and ridiculous) as I find what this man has to say is....he has every right to say it. The first amendment applies to everyone. Besides, we have a couple things that for the most part negate any danger of Sharia replacing the constitution. First is...well, the constitution. Second is a populace that will never have massive enough numbers of supporters of sharia to overthrow the Constitutional Republic for a Sharia based government.

I agree that it will never happen here. My major reason for saying it is that if there is a Brown population that grows, this gives us more of a Catholic majority. Christians will always be the dominate religion here.

Per the First Amendment, Mr. Choudary has every right to protest in favor of the stablishment of Sharia Law in the United States. Also per the First Amendment, the United States has not and will not establish Sharia or any other religious law as binding upon those who do not care to be bound by it. I'm uncertain what else you think is needed for us to do in order to qualify as "standing up to some of these radicals."

Wow!! I had never heard about this one, and if such a thing is permitted it would be a definate sign of the times, and wake up call for everyone around. Personally should not something like this be allowed to be Voted on first? And if Obama allows it this would prove everyone's fear he is Muslim and was lying to us from the start. All I can do and all anyone can do is Pray and believe God to never allow something like this to take place as well.

I really fail to understand as to why the western countries always try to placate the Muslim population... the very rigidity of Islam goes against the foundation laws of any secular democratic country. Here in India, politicians toe their line coz they are a big influential vote bank... is it the same in western nations too? We were really shocked to see the way the ground zero mosque came up despite severe protests from supposedly the ‘majority’ and now this... no wonder, I heard somewhere that the way things are going on in the US, very soon it will be know as the US of Arabia. And as for being ‘politically correct’... the US seems to be making a lot of mistakes on the global area yet trying to be ‘correct’ at home, which is actually going against it. It had no business in Iraq and Afghanistan where it went, while back home it’s trying to recognize the same undemocratic laws which it supposedly is trying to overthrow in other theocratic / autocratic states.

Sharia law is a blatant violation of the US Constitution. The only way to establish it would be to destroy the Constitution. What he wants is the destruction of the US, remade to his demands.

Well, this guy and anyone sharing his opinion can want it. They have every right to protest for it in the US. But it's not going to happen. Just like folks who want America to work more like a socialist/communist system - move somewhere else! If this guy wants Sharia law, go to a Sharia-controlled country. Nothing's stopping him. He's free to leave. These idiots that want the violent, oppressive version of Islam to spread and take over America are unfortunately welcome in America. But America is full of idiots wanting all types of crap idiots want. He's only the latest. I'm interested to know if CAIR is denouncing this guy, though. Supposedly, they're the voice of moderate, peace-loving Muslims in America. They're quick to jump on anyone who may say anything even slightly anti-Muslim. So I'll keep my eyes peeled to see if they bash this guy (with more than perhaps 1 press release from a San Fran branch or something). Not that CAIR's ignoring this guy means they side with him, but I think it's fair to say those silent on certain matters earn a questionable look or few. After all, they blasted Juan Williams for saying people on plans in traditional Muslim garb make him nervous, but they didn't speak up very loudly about the professor calling for violence against all Zionists. The incidents happend on the same day.

Dearborn Michagan IS in the USA, right? I ask that you view this video and comment. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0relDfMQ4xQ&annotation_id=annotation_310064&feature=iv

Perhaps this discussion would be of interest to you: http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/2336762.aspx You're right to worry.

Hello Scott, I am a bit tired and wanted to stop posting but this discussion had forced me to tell my views. these extremist doesn't realize that they are giving their religion and the other innocent members a very bad name! but who cares?! they don't care, and they want others to join them as many as possible United States is supposed to be a beacon of Modern Democracy and shouldn't allow old fashioned laws to exist since most of them are MAN MADE anyways

Hi, Scottoleson, don't worry. This is too absurd to be a real threat. I made a quick check with myLot search and see what I found: "However, whether the three will be able to enter the U.S., especially Izzadeen, remains to be seen. Even a tourist visa requires applicants to answer questions on whether they have been involved in acts of terrorism or plan to commit crimes in the U.S." I think that the best strategy is to ignore such extremists. If the media don't show them they won't have any chance.
