re: #234 Ace-o-aces

“Sharia” is already banned in the USA. By the First Amendment.

Newt knows that, he is just using it to stir up controversy. He knows it is a serious buzzword for the Right Wing, to them it conjures up images of beheadings, stonings and women forced to wear veils.

There are instances (in England) where Sharia judges are allowed to preside over civil cases (divorce and property settlements) if both sides agree to it and the ruling is compatible with local law.

But there are people who insist that Sharia is taking over Europe…
