Let's hope this attempt to preserve Constitutional freedoms against Sharia encroachment doesn't run afoul of a clueless, politically correct judge, as did the attempt in Oklahoma. "Wyoming legislation targets Islamic, international law," from the Casper Star-Tribune, January 20:
CASPER, Wyo. -- Wyoming judges wouldn't be allowed to consider Islamic law or international law when making rulings, under a proposed state constitutional amendment introduced this week.To date, no Wyoming court rulings have been based on Islamic law, or Shariah. But state Rep. Gerald Gay, R-Casper, said his proposed constitutional amendment, House Joint Resolution 8, is meant as a "pre-emptive strike" to ensure judges don't rely on Shariah in cases involving, for example, arranged marriages, "honor killings" or usury cases.
Gay said while he didn't expect the proposed amendment to pass this year, he predicted support for the proposal would increase in future years.
Last year, Oklahoma passed a constitutional amendment banning state courts from considering or using international law or Shariah law. But a federal judge subsequently blocked that amendment on the grounds that it "fosters an excessive government entanglement with religion."

Jerry is so right. If threats won't work, money will. And the Muslims have unlimited resources of money from selling the western world oil. Oil that we wouldn't need if we were allowed to develop all our own oil, shale, and coal that we are prevented from doing by politicians bowing to enviromental wackos. They also have unlimited resources of naive idiots ready to kill themselve if necessary to kill us.
And that 'Islamic terrorist attack" badge at the lower right of this site that say's "16,700 deadly attacks since 911".
That's nothing to brag about, the USA has killed 1,421,933 Iraqi's, 4,754 US military, at a cost of $1,141,338,868,816 to the US taxpayer. This all based on a series of lies by our government officials.(official criminals)
Now I know why you wont use your real name.
How many of those deaths were us defending ourselves from attack?
Are you counting all the Iraqis killed by Iraqis?
WAR is NEVER pretty and death is part of it.
Ask anybody if they would defend their family, when attacked, to the death. The attackers or theirs.
You forgot "Don't get into a battle of wits with an unarmed person."

I had a couple friends that where murdered in the WTC. These where people that had families and their lives where taken for what so that the maslams could declare WAR on this country, they could have found a different way of doing it don't you think. If it sounds as if I am up set I am not but if we do not stop the maslams who will? And for info they did find a good supply of missiles that were buried in a hanger type building. My brother-in-law was the one who told me about it he was there when they where found and helped to destroy the things.
