Tancredo Introduces Anti-Sharia “Jihad Prevention Act”
The photo above, is my view of what America would look like under Sharia Law. But if you would please take out all the light from that photo, and imagine America that way.
We have a constitution that has worked for all. We have laws that work for all. ANY diversion from them is a diversion from being America.

Islamic Sharia Courts In Britain Are Now ‘Legally Binding’- Goodbye GB
September 19, 2008
Jihad Watch
In the wake of Britain’s capitulation to Sharia, this is just the kind of law we need. I am very glad to see Congressman Tancredo doing this, and hope that it will at very least ignite a national debate about this issue.
“Tancredo Proposes Anti-Sharia Measure in Wake of U.K. Certification of Islamic Courts,” from Borderfire Report, September 19 (thanks to all who sent this in):
WASHINGTON, DC – Amid disturbing revelations that the verdicts of Islamic Sharia courts are now legally binding in civil cases in the United Kingdom, U.S. Representative Tom Tancredo (R-Littleton) moved quickly today to introduce legislation designed to protect the United States from a similar fate.
According to recent news reports, a new network of Sharia courts in a half-dozen major cities in the U.K. have been empowered under British law to adjudicate a wide variety of legal cases ranging from divorces and financial disputes to those involving domestic violence.
“This is a case where truth is truly stranger than fiction,” said Tancredo. “Today the British people are learning a hard lesson about the consequences of massive, unrestricted immigration.”
Sharia law, favored by Muslim extremists around the world, often calls for brutal punishment – such as the stoning of women who are accused of adultery or have children out of wedlock, cutting off the hands of petty thieves and lashings for the casual consumption of alcohol. Under Sharia law, a woman is often required to provide numerous witnesses to prove rape allegations against an assailant – a near impossible task.
“When you have an immigration policy that allows for the importation of millions of radical Muslims, you are also importing their radical ideology – an ideology that is fundamentally hostile to the foundations of western democracy – such as gender equality, pluralism, and individual liberty,” said Tancredo. “The best way to safeguard America against the importation of the destructive effects of this poisonous ideology is to prevent its purveyors from coming here in the first place.”
Tancredo’s bill, dubbed the “Jihad Prevention Act,” would bar the entry of foreign nationals who advocate Sharia law. In addition, the legislation would make the advocacy of Sharia law by radical Muslims already in the United States a deportable offense.
Tancredo pointed to the results of a recent poll conducted by the Centre for Social Cohesion as evidence that the U.S. should act to prevent the situation in Great Britain from replicating itself here in the United States. The poll found that some 40 percent of Muslim students in the United Kingdom support the introduction of Sharia law there, and 33 percent support the imposition of an Islamic Sharia-based government worldwide.
“We need to send a clear message that the only law we recognize here in America is the U.S. Constitution and the laws passed by our democratically elected representatives,” concluded Tancredo. “If you aren’t comfortable

Good! Someone is being proactive! Sneaky bastards are here already and it is just a matter of time before they are in control if we don’t wake up and put a stop to them NOW!!
September 21st, 2008 at 9:32 amMaybe it’s just me, but I would like to think we would not need such a measure… But, I guess given the rise of the wackos in this country (not in numbers, only in their being able to get their spiel out [thanks internet]) the measure probably couldn’t hurt.
I am watching the Pat’s look like crap against Miami right now and am ready for a beer.
September 21st, 2008 at 9:41 amThere are too many wackos in America, a lot of haters, a lot of those seeking to destroy America from within, those who will help destroy our country for a chance at gaining power and control.
There are too many people at this point and time that have power in the USA that are doing their part to hammer away dividing us.
Beats me why they want to give up their freedoms….but to control others is a powerful lure.
September 21st, 2008 at 10:20 amThanks for being alert and not waiting ’til it’s too late to do the right thing, Tom. They don’t call it ’shari’a creep’ for nothing. Ban Muslim Immigration NOW.
September 21st, 2008 at 11:13 amMuslims Against Sharia praise Congressman Tancredo’s initiative. We advocated similar measures in the past and fully support “Gihad Prevention Act”
“Any person from a country where a substantial part of the population is pro-Sharia should not be allowed in the West, not only as an immigrant, but even as a visitor with a few exceptions, i.e., political asylum or as a diplomat etc. … Every legal immigrant should be allowed to stay only if he/she did not display desire to establish a Sharia state in a host country. Any naturalized citizen who displays a desire to establish a Sharia state in a host country should have his/her citizenship revoked and promptly deported. I think the latter two groups is where the real danger lies.” Linda Ahmed, FrontPage Magazine, July 24, 2008
“Anyone who proclaims Islamic extremist views should be tried for sedition, since we are at war with radical Islam, or at the very least, promptly deported.” Khalim Massoud, FrontPage Magazine, September 9, 2008

Bout’ freaking time, and I’m glad someone put it forward. Because if they didn’t, then it is only a matter of time before CAIR and the rest of those idiots make it happen here too…
September 21st, 2008 at 11:56 amTancredo, one of the few in Congress who actually get it.
As far as I am concerned, there should be no person let into the U.S. if they practise Islam.
Islam is a death cult. It is not a religion, it is a false religion.

Beware of the above named group. I would not trust what they say any futher than I could throw Rosie O’Dingaling.
September 21st, 2008 at 12:08 pmIslam sucks.
Death to Islam.
Mohammed was a pedephile.
Marc, that’s pedOphile and, other than that, it was a perfect post.

Your comment was deleted. But here it is… And my answer….
–>London Calling Post: That I deleted
—>Lftbhndagn
Please stop perpetuating the myth that Britain has capitulated to Muslim extremists and is now under Sharia.
As I said on the previous thread …
“Before you folk get too worked up in thinking that the Britain is turning into a Muslim state. This is arbitration - i.e. dispute resolution - we are talking about here, no hand chopping, stoning or any other medieval practices.
Even the normally hysterical Daily Mail points out…
“The Ministry of Justice said: ‘Sharia law is not part of the law of England and Wales, and the Government has no intention of making any change that would conflict with British laws and values.
‘In all arbitrations, decisions will be enforceable by the English courts if the requirements of the 1996 Arbitration Act are satisfied. If any decisions by these Tribunals were illegal or contrary to public policy under English law, they would not be enforceable.’”
Also a point I was going to make, but is also made in the article…
“… Jewish Beth Din courts have handled civil legal cases for more than 100 years in Britain on a similar basis, and now operate under the 1996 Arbitration Act.
So you can relax…”
——————————-
MY RESPONSE TO YOU!
That’s fancy talk for saying that England is now enforcing Sharia law. Your argument is that its okey dokey as long as “If any decisions by these Tribunals were illegal or contrary to public policy under English law, they would not be enforceable.’” So, then why not the panoply of all law in all lands reign across england, and have judges waste their time poring over them in study, as long as “If any decisions by these Tribunals were illegal or contrary to public policy under English law, they would not be enforceable.’”
Riddle me this, oh denizen of the land of the woman-bashing Batman, just why is Sharia law given sway in English courts? What is wrong with the law of the land, being the law for all. Oh, I see, what you said isn’t true, the land, which is to say its people, are indeed changing, and now the culture and the laws are slowly changng to adapt to the new culture of growing prominence in England. I know you’ve fallen down London Bridge, but you should have gotten up and collected your thoughts by now, and can realize that only a complete dimwit could possibly believe that a rising population of immigrants with a culture at best fairly tolerant and at worst murderously hateful of your, do not present a danget to the English culture as they will so obviously will try to chip away at it, evenutally remaking the whole Island Sammi’s Bizarre, Discount TV’s and White Devil Strip joints.

Sometimes in a persons’ personal fight with the English language, some words just seem to get mis-spelled over and over again. I will have to remember pedophile is with an O and not an E.
Pedophile.
I’d vote for him
September 21st, 2008 at 8:45 pmFirstly, thank you very much for digging my post out of the Libtard-Twat-Comments bin and posting it. I appreciate that you didn’t have to do that, so I’m very grateful.
I’m beginning to doubt, though, that you are concerned at all with accuracy. The law of the land here does apply to all; Sharia law has not been incorporated into English law in any form. Violence against women is just as illegal and just as repugnant as it always was.
If you are in dispute with a neighbour, or a business etc., then you can agree to have it resolved by a third party in arbitration. This can take any form that the parties want, but crucially:-
1. Both parties must agree on the specifics of the process.
2. The judgement cannot be contrary to English Law.
All this is about is if you submit to arbitration the resolution, like any contract, is enforceable. If you wanted it to be conducted in Klingon to the principles of Qo’noS you probably could do.
PS. No, I’m not a Treckkie.
