Title: Governor Sam Brownback Does Something Very Right
Post by: Ross on May 25, 2012, 09:26:14 PM
KANSAS CITY, Kan., May 25 (Reuters) - Republican Kansas
Governor Sam Brownback signed a bill aimed at keeping state
courts and agencies from using Islamic or other non-U.S. laws
when making decisions, his office said on Friday, drawing
criticism from a national Muslim group.

The law has been dubbed the "sharia bill" because critics
say it targets the Islamic legal code. Sharia, or Islamic law,
covers all aspects of Muslim life, including religious
obligations and financial dealings. Opponents of state bans say
they could nullify wills or legal contracts between Muslims.

Good for Sam! IF they want to live here they need to abide by the constitutional law.  IF it is at odds with their beliefs, then they can go back to where ever sharia law exists.

I tip my cap to the Governor for having nads---but you can bet your sweet bippy the Muslims will take legal action and some moderate / liberal judge will say it "discriminates" and therefore unconstitional.
