Missouri House Votes to Ban Sharia Law…

I will update this post when the inevitable CAIR press release is issued.

JEFFERSON CITY — A bill prohibiting state courts from using or recognizing Sharia law passed the Missouri House Wednesday on a 102-51 vote.

The legislation, which was sponsored by state Rep. Paul Curtman, R-Pacific, bans Missouri courts from utilizing foreign law or legal code in any ruling. Although it never specifically mentions the words “Sharia” or “Islam,” Wednesday’s debate focused almost exclusively on Sharia law, which is the religious law of Islam. . . .

Legislation similar to Curtman’s was introduced in the Missouri Senate by Republican Brian Nieves but has yet to gain traction. The House bill picked up momentum earlier this session when House Speaker Steve Tilley threw his support behind it, saying “the laws of this country should trump any other laws regarding the citizens of our country within our borders.”

Speaking in opposition to the measure, State Rep. Jamilah Nasheed, D-St. Louis, said she’d like to help educate Curtman on Sharia law.

“I truly believe you think you’re doing the right thing,” she said while talking to Curtman on the House floor, later adding: “I don’t think that you have ill intentions, so I would encourage you to become familiar with Sharia Law. I’d really like to sit down with you and we can study together and come to a better understanding of what Sharia Law is, how it works and what it does.”

    “Speaking in opposition to the measure, State Rep. Jamilah Nasheed, D-St. Louis, said she’d like to help educate Curtman on Sharia law.”

    Why educate yourself on a foreign law that is not applicable to our Constitution or way of life? Focus on America and it’s laws, do not succumb to foreigners and how the want to manipulate our system, because they refuse to assimilate.

    I would like to educate Curtman on the U.S. Constitution. There she would learn the U.S. is off limits to foreign laws and intervention. Another misguided Libtard.

    Here in the great state of Missouri we may vote early & often or elect dead candidates, but every once in a while we get things right. Thank you Rep. Curtman. And to Rep. Nasheed: we’ll be keeping a close eye on you. Sharia has no business anywhere, and especially not in the U.S.

    Nasheed’s name says it all. Vote it out of office. It’s beliefs do not belong in the United States of America.
