After years of debate, the South Carolina House passed a bill to block Islamic sharia law from being recognized or approved in the state. The legislation was passed with sixty-eight for the bill and forty-two opposed. For those of you who don’t know, sharia law is the legal and political system mandated in the Koran and other
Islamic texts includes laws governing religious practice, divorce, child-rearing, free-speech, clothing, sexual behavior and a plethora of other things that the government should really have no control over. These are the guiding principles of those who practice Islam.
Knowing this, it seems rather contradicting that liberals are so persistent on protecting Muslims and seeing that everybody goes out of their way to respect their practices, especially since sharia law makes women and non-Muslims lesser in status and grants men enormous power over wives, daughters and sons. It also allows for “honor killings” by fathers for anybody who refuses to comply.

Hurray!
No stayed in this union should had to Pass a law to prevent the use of Saren law Sharon law is a Muslim law and it belongs in a Muslim country not here in the United States
Should not be up for a vote, no mercy
Good! There is no place in America for sharia law.
What right do they have to come to America and demand that their law be recognized…we couldn’t do that in their country.
The south will save us all.
If Sharia law is ever passed and you have a Muslim and an American in a legal dispute of some kind, which law would they use? Our laws are more humane. As many Muslims as Obama and Hilary are bringing in to America, it makes me wonder.
I don’t understand why we have to vote on this! Sharia law is NOT OUR LAW OF THE LAND! The Muslims come to this country and bring this barbaric law with them and we are considering it in parts of our country?
Good.
