The graphic in the right was together by the government. Looking at it, knowing what I do about Muslim beliefs, I can see why all Americans express their fears or concerns about SHAARIA law being used in America. All over Europe, nations have allowed Muslims this concession. The nations have little by little become overcome by Muslim culture, often at the expense of their own loss of freedom. Basic rights and freedoms have been trampled and fear and retribution has replaced basic rights and freedoms formerly held by the host nations. I, for one, don’t want to see such a occurrance in America. Call it Islamaphobia or what you will, I could care less, the fact remains that under Islam, human rights are trampled upon!
I found a link over at FrontPageMagazine which discusses the growing attempt by Muslims to implement “Shaaria law” in America and the efforts of states to take preventive measures where the United States Government has failed to act! I was particularly captured by comments made by one reader, jacob:
Oklahoma Says No to Shari by Daniel Pipes
The judicial mess prevalent in this country plus the accursed “political correctness” proven by what just happened in Manhattan with this terrorist suit, proving the “Hoof in Mouth” affecting our President and his choice of Secretary of Justice, prevents people from telling the Muslims in our midst that SHAARIA law is out of order, that we will not accept any court ruling defending or based on this iniquitous law, we will not allow its application even among themselves when it contradicts OUR laws or costumes and finally, THAT THIS IS THE WAY IT IS AND IF THEY DON’T LIKE IT, THE EXIT DOORS OF OUR COUNTRY ARE WIDE OPEN AND THEY CAN GET THE HELL OUT WHENEVER THEY FEEL LIKE AS AFTER ALL, WE DID NOT SEND FOR THEM..
PERIOD….
I see no reason to waste good gunpowder on buzzards and keep on arguing a stupid issue and as to the judge that came out with such salomonic ruling, I say that an old proverb stated “In heaven the Lord and on earth the judges” which is why it saddens me so deeply to learn of a venal or a stupid judge.
Well said. I absolutely agree! In America, we separate “Church and State.” It is a cornerstone of our belief system and our Constitution! As Pipe so states:
As Americans learn more about Islam, the aspect they find most objectionable is not its theology (such as whether Allah is God or not) nor its symbolism (such as an Islāmic cultural center in lower Manhattan) but its law code, called the Sharia. Rightly, they say no to a code that privileges Muslims over non-Muslims, men over women, and contains many elements inimical to modern life.
The left in America can try to erase our history and re-write our history, but they will never make us forget one of the biggest reasons we fought to fee ourselves from British rule,
separation of Church and State! As Americans, we will never submit to such a system as “SHAARIA.” We unquestionably believe in these words:
We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.
Furthermore, we hold the following words from our Constitution to be our most treasured:
[Bill of Rights]
The conventions of a number of the States having at the time of their adopting the Constitution, expressed a desire, in order to prevent misconstruction or abuse of its powers, that further declaratory and restrictive clauses should be added.
- Article the first [Not Ratified]
- After the first enumeration required by the first article of the Constitution, there shall be one Representative for every thirty thousand, until the number shall amount to one hundred, after which the proportion shall be so regulated by Congress, that there shall be not less than one hundred Representatives, nor less than one Representative for every forty thousand persons, until the number of Representatives shall amount to two hundred; after which the proportion shall be so regulated by Congress, that there shall not be less than two hundred Representatives, nor more than one Representative for every fifty thousand persons.
- Article the second [Amendment XXVII – Ratified 1992]
- No law, varying the compensation for the services of the Senators and Representatives, shall take effect, until an election of Representatives shall have intervened.
- Article the third [Amendment I]

- Article the fourth [Amendment II][4]
- A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

- Article the sixth [Amendment IV]
- The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.
- Article the seventh [Amendment V]
- No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.
- Article the eighth [Amendment VI]
- In all criminal prosecutions, the accused shall enjoy the right to a speedy and public trial, by an impartial jury of the State and district wherein the crime shall have been committed, which district shall have been previously ascertained by law, and to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to be confronted with the witnesses against him; to have compulsory process for obtaining witnesses in his favor, and to have the Assistance of Counsel for his defence.
- Article the ninth [Amendment VII]
- In Suits at common law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right of trial by jury shall be preserved, and no fact tried by a jury, shall be otherwise re-examined in any Court of the United States, than according to the rules of the common law.
- Article the tenth [Amendment VIII]
- Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted.
- Article the eleventh [Amendment IX]
- The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
- Article the twelfth [Amendment X]
- The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
Of all these rights, I personally feel none is more important than the following:
Article the third [Amendment I]
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Article the fourth [Amendment II][4]
But, make no mistake or misjudge our resolve, as a nation, we will never submit to a system of government that denies, “We, the People,” any of the rights protected by the Bill of Rights or our Constitution.
Be aware, Mr. President, Ms. Pelosi, Congress, CAIR, or any others who would threaten to take away our rights, you are all put on notice, the TEA PARTY, Glenn Beck, and the countless others who speak out against your attacks on our rights and freedoms on our behalf are patriots, not NAZI’s, racists, or any other slanderous name you try to label them. They are merely speaking or relating to you all, the true nature and spirit of “We the People!” We will not go away! We will not be silenced! We are not a random few disgruntled! We are, one in all, “Americans,” standing up for our rights! The backlash you all saw in the recent mid-term elections is your notice of our intent. We will be heard! We will not be ignored! We will not go away “quietly into the night!” We will> do whatever it legally takes to protect our rights and rid ourselves of your cancer eating away at our rights!
This is not treason! This is not fanatical! This is not seditious! This is not the rantings of the ill-informed or mis-guided! This a promise made by those of us who will no longer be silent or complacent!” We are, after all, true “AMERICANS!” We are “American Patriots!”
