OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Oklahoma voters have approved a measure that would forbid judges from considering international law or Islamic law when deciding cases.

Republican Rex Duncan, the sponsor of the measure, called it a "pre-emptive strike" designed to close the door on activist judges "legislating from the bench or using international law or Sharia law."

Members of the Muslim community called the question an attack on Islam and some of them said they are prepared to file a lawsuit challenging the measure.

The new governors and state legislatures will not only fight Obama’s healthcare and other infringements on the 10th, but here is where we start making moves on PC garbage all over the country. And it’s well past time.

I have happily lived in Oklahoma since 1988 when the AF transferred me here. Given the chance to leave for an overseas assignment followed by a plum choice on return I declined and chose to stay here. There’s a reason why Oklahoma is considered to be the most conservative state in the Union. That, plus it has a really neat state song!

Liberals support government judges using sectarian religious law to decide cases? Where is the ACLU?

Something tells me any suggestion to use Noachide Halakhah in deciding cases would cause the libs to raise holy h***.
