Marches against Islamic law to be held in many US cities
Fox News ^ | 6/10/17 | ANDREW SELSKY and JEFF KAROUB

Posted on 06/10/2017 7:14:23 AM PDT by markomalley

Marches against Islamic law were planned Saturday in more than two dozen cities across the United States, but scholars and others say the protesters are stoking unfounded fears and promoting a distorted and prejudiced view of the religion.

The group organizing the rallies, ACT for America, claims Shariah "is incompatible with Western democracy and the freedoms it affords."

But most Muslims don't want to replace U.S. law with Islamic law, known as Shariah, and only "radical extremist groups" would call for that, said Liyakat Takim, a professor of Islamic studies at McMaster University in the Canadian city of Hamilton, Ontario.

Shariah, Takim said, refers to guidelines or principles — how Muslims should live. "Fiqh" refers to jurisprudence, or specific laws. The values embedded in Shariah do not change and are shared among Muslims, he said, while fiqh is open to interpretation and change, and in fact differs among Islamic sects and communities.

And Fiqh also commends the practice of Taqiyya and supports the Hijrah as a slow form of Jihad in order to bring forth the Dar al Islam, Mr. Imam Takim...we also know this part.

“But most Muslims don’t want to replace U.S. law with Islamic law, known as Shariah, and only “radical extremist groups” would call for that”

61% of muslims in America are first generation immigrants. They come from Sharia countries, some flee it, but in polls they majority support it.

Which is the distorted view? That Sharia is incompatible with US law and culture or that Sharia is compatible with US law and culture? I think the latter is the distortion. The evil cult of Islam is not compatible with any civilized society, especially not ours. It dumbfounds me that people criticize Americans for resisting Islam, yet then turn a blind eye to the evil of Islam, to its subjugation of women, its intolerance, and its core and rather direct teachings. This isn’t a matter of the New and Old interpretations, there is only one Islam. Old, evil, and repugnant.

Hell , La Raza Rick Perry signed Sharia courts into law in Texas.

It isn’t just the Mohammadans, its the Uniparty quislings pushing sharia law.

There is a need in the muslin religion for law to take care of disputes and infractions, however they have no right to supersede the civil law of our country.

I thought that would change when they started killing homosexuals but it didn’t. Then I thought it would change when they started mutilating little girls but it didn’t. Then I thought it would change when they demanded Islam adherence in public schools but it didn’t. I have given up.

This will be an interesting day. Antifa has vowed to protest those in this march. They feel it’s fascist to be against Sharia Law (Ironically it’s Fascist to defend it.) And some Democrat groups have threatened to disrupt it also. So we can see that the LW fully supports Sharia law through this

According to the mainstream media, as a conservative, they consider me an extreme radical. So by their definition, there may well be a huge majority of muslims in favor of sharia law.

Until a large majority of muslims join with civilized people in these protests, such demonstrations against the ROT (the Religion of Terror) are meaningless and will accomplish nothing except “feel-good stuff”.

Maybe you weren’t aware of it in 2003.

Here is a recap.

It was one of the reasons so many of us here in Texas worked so hard to run him out of politics. Only to see the Uniparty negotiate a place for him in DC.

Distorted yes — the “radical” muslims are the only ones who practice it according to how it was written and intended.

Prejudiced: It is insane NOT to be biased against the ideology of pure evil.

As long as we put up with politicians like Berni Sanders holding inquisitions against Christians in front of Senate Commities because they’ve written the truth about Islam, the forward movement towards Sharia will continue.

Islam is a death cult that is incompatible with our Constitution.

Islam creates pshycopathy, sociopathy, and other derangements, and should be treated like rabies.

However there’s only one real way to combat it today; Christianity. Evangelize the hell oit of our Muslim communities.

What this article shows is that even Fox News, supposedly the flagship conservative news outlet, feels compelled to defend Muslims and malign the marchers, presenting a completely distorted picture. In fact, a complete inversion of reality. Shame on Fox News.
