Mosque approved in 5-0 Kennesaw City Council vote

The controversial vote came despite protests from a crowd of about 20 people outside City Hall holding signs with the words “Ban Islam” and “No Mosque” and waving American flags before and after the meeting.

20 people out there. Perhaps there are 2 million more with stupid mindset.
 

So that report is 656 pages long. Have ya read it?

I skimmed the introduction and it seems to be mostly about implementing Sharia prinicipals WITHIN the context of US Law - much like Catholic and Jewish law already co-exists within US Law.

I also read the synopsis' of several of the "highly relevant" cases and none of them support the idea that Sharia is supplanting US law. In some cases the trial court got it wrong by recognizing a tenet of Sharia that conflicted with US law and in all those cases the appellate court reversed - so the system worked there.

In other cases the court simply recognized decisions by foreign courts which, believe it or not is relatively common.

Nothing there suggests Sharia law is going to supplant the Constitution any time soon.

Sorry you guys dont see it. Oh, and when was the last time we were at war with Catholicism and Jews?

It's not that we don't 'see it' it's that your source failed miserably to demonstrate "it" exists.

I also read several summaries of the cases, and almost all of them involved disputes across international borders and, courts sometimes, and sometimes not, respecting decisions of foreign courts. They really had nothing to do with the court determining "Sharia" law applied, but that the rulings of a foreign court applied. For example, one woman got hurt in Saudi Arabia, and wanted to sue in U.S. court. "Sharia Law" had nothing to do with anything - it's whether the woman injured in one country can, and under what circumstances, sue in another to collect damages. I doubt if our courts would take kindly to a visitor getting hurt in Las Vegas, then deciding to use the courts in Afghanistan or Cuba to sue a major casino.

The one following was a partnership. The partners agreed to submit disputes to "Islamic arbitration." Note that they parties negotiated and agreed. One lost, then sought to dismiss the results of the arbitration they both agreed to and the court said, no. That's what you AGREED to do, that's what happened, you didn't prove it was a fraudulent decision, so it stands. Nothing at all to do with Sharia, just upholding the terms of a partnership agreement, same way they do every day when citizens who agree to binding arbitration can't reject those decisions and go to court except under extreme circumstances.

Etc.
 
Now lets go back to the bill, not some nutty, tin foil hat woman: "to update a report on the role of telecommunications, including the Internet, in the commission of hate crimes."
And it was explained to you earlier what these 'hate crimes' are all about and how they will be applied, just as they have in Canada and western Europe. This is nothing new, except to you and those not involved in the outside world.

It will take a few years before they get it, just as it was in Europe and Canada. In the meanwhile everyone else will be racist, Islamophobic, and so on.

forms of religion that involve controlling or harming other people in its name are dangerous every one gets that

people who want to discriminate against other based on their faith even when their not doing any of that might be racist and islamophobic

but they definitely are and always remain assholes

**** them
 
um none of that shows sings of sharia law being implemented or that any 1 is trying to do so

looks to be some abuse of the 1st amendment going on but nothing worse then what Christians try to pull
It is called "Shariah creep" and of course you're not aware of its existence though much material is available, even on pro Shariah Islamic websites. Are you at all familiar with what Muslims have to say on the subject or do you restrict yourself to the American msm?

What are American Christians trying to pull?

They arent doing anything to say a certain hate crime or language about hate crimes, its examining past hate crimes, and relation to the internet, and telecommunications...

Yes, they're just having a look.

Saying the bill only gives the power to look at things on public message boards, etc, and gave no authority for someone to actively do more than "just having a look".... Yea.

yes all Muslims want sharia law what was I thinking this is totally not conspiracy theory bull **** at all and your totally not going to try and use it on all Muslims even though yes they all want to impose sharia

derp derp derp

some Christians play a nice big part in trying to stop gay marriage, or in making laws to allow people to refuse service on religious grounds, or in attempts to limit or out law abortion, some of them want laws based on what the bible condones or condemns lets face it.

just look at are buddy palecon

and ya I bet their are plenty of Muslims that are the same way but so what nether religion is a hive mind and we have to deal with what individuals and groups within them actually do instead of being indiscriminate assholes driven by terror

Nice news source.

Link me something semi-credible, thanks.

but some Muslims may want to refuse service to people based on their religion

America has never before faced such a dire internal threat
 
And this couldn't be added to the first thread because?

I am glad it wasnt since I didnt happen to see the first thread and am only just now reading this one.
 
They have, and Shariah is all over Europe. Sharia Law in America - Current Status

The first thing I checked - "Skokie School District 68 in Illinois became the first US school district to celebrate Eid al-Adha, a Muslim high day, as a school holiday, in lieu of Veterans Day" is a lie: http://www.skokie68.org/uploads/5/1/8/2/5182085/academic_year_2014-15.pdf

The second thing I checked - "Rocky Mountain High School in Fort Collins, Colorado became the first high school to recite the Pledge of Allegiance in Arabic, replacing "One nation under God," with "One nation under Allah," is misleading because they allow the kids to alternate the language that the pledge is read in and when they read it in Arabic they said Allah, which is Arabic for God. Now some people can argue that they shouldnt be reading it in other languages and that is a fight for another thread but it isnt due to Sharia Law creeping in. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...dge-Arabic-saying-One-Nation-Under-Allah.html
