New York: Black Muslim Woman Takes Oath As Judge, Swears on Holy Quran

New York--New York Judge Carolyn Walker-Diallo, a Black Muslim woman took oath as a civil court judge in New York on Thursday, while swearing to abide by the U.S. Constitution placing her hand on the Holy Quran.

In the United States and the majority of Western countries, politicians and members of the courts are sworn in to their positions while placing their hand on the Holy Bible when they take their oath.

However, Judge Walker took her oath respecting the sacred book of her Islamic faith, the Holy Quran, while also wearing a hijab.

A video posted on Facebook shows the moment when Judge Walker was sworn in as a civil court judge of the 7th Municipal District at the Brooklyn Burough Hall in New York City.

"All is praise is indeed due to the Most High! I am humbled that my community has entrusted me with the immense responsibility of ensuring that EVERYONE has notice and a FAIR opportunity to be heard in the halls of justice," Walker wrote on her website.

Be interesting to see her try a case where someone wraps a koran in bacon

Only governor’s get to appoint state judges, not mayors.

She's a civil court judge, she was not appointed by anybody but those who voted for her. She ran unopposed, that's the sad part.

So how does that work since Islam allows lying if it is for the ‘promotion of the cause of Islam’.....

Is that a hijab? Looks to me like a judge’s robe, just like what the blonde woman in the background is wearing. I don’t have any idea what that thing on Judge Walker’s head is, though.

NY should now implement sharia. Especially on the upper west side of Manhattan.

She’s a black Muslim. NOI, one of Farrakhan’s followers.
Wonder I’d she’s related to the late Amadou Diallo, famously shot to death by NYPD a few years back. Family sued for $61mil, settled for $3 mil.
She’ll be judging civil cases, IOW lawsuits.

The hijab is the head/neck covering.

A burkha is the black robe with head covering, and sometimes face covering with eye cutouts or full face covering with embroidered holes for vision and breathing.

We have some neighbors who are die-hard Democrats; will
surely vote for Hitler-y if she runs. They’re getting old,
don’t “do” the internet, so their only news is the
Lamestream media propaganda that props up Hussein, of
course. - The Obama worship is alive out here - barely.

By the time the American people figure out they’ve been
bamboozled; it will be too late.

Thanks, I didn’t know that (obviously). The day’s not completely wasted as long as I learned something.

Jim, I think you are correct. A fake Muslim. A few years
ago, a young woman was on one of those news shows. She
was all decked out in a gauzy orange hijab; and she had
outfits in all colors. People like her and this judge
will be the first ones either enslaved or beheaded if
the Jihadists overrun us. - Hussein Obama is hedging his
bets in favor of the Jihadists. As long as we have to
supply him and his wife and daughters with bodyguards,
he *may* be okay; at least unless the hordes become so
overwhelming they’re storming the gates. Then his guards
would likely take their guns and go home to defend their
own families. - We’re trying to stay centered. We WILL
defend ourselves & our families with all means at our
disposal.

imagine a robe sitting there with a cross around their neck, the lawyers would have a field day screaming separation of church and state and all...
