KANSAS CITY, Kansas (Reuters) - Kansas lawmakers have passed legislation intended to prevent the state courts or agencies from using Islamic or other non-U.S. laws in making decisions, a measure critics have blasted as an embarrassment to the state.
It's just about time for another revolution against tyranny.Quote from pspr:
After Oklahoma voters approved a law in 2010 barring state judges from considering Sharia law specifically in making decisions, federal courts granted an injunction preventing the law from taking effect.
A three-judge panel of the U.S. 10th Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver upheld the injunction, ruling the law unfairly discriminated against a particular religion.
When this gets to the Supreme Court they had better rule for the American people and not this sharia nonsense.
Quote from PHOENIX TRADING:
Embarrassing?
It should be taken as a given that only US law applies in the States.
It's not like we are in the 17th century looking to english common law for guidance.
Quote from Tom B:
That should be the case; however, Ruth Bader Ginsburg disagrees.
