And so it begins. Islam creeps into our culture by soft jihad. Those who claim 'islamaphobe" should move to Iran and wear a cross around their neck. Wonder how long they would last. Until Muslims denounce sharia forcefully and publicly I will remain a skeptic. Their techniques for conversion are well documented and the outcomes are well known. The next president MUST rid the White House of the Muslim Brotherhood's influence and back off on political correctness. Diversity is a bad idea. We were once the melting pot. Not so anymore.

Bravo Zulu to the Mayor!

I'm sure that she'll be able to find some kind of satisfying work after the Feds have her removed for obstruction of justice or some such.

I was so proud of my fellow Texans for this. If you cannot live with America's laws, get the F out!!!!

How in the world did anyone ever get the idea that any law other than American Constitutional law can be used in Texas or anywhere else in this country? The insidious invasion of Islamists into this country promulgate this concept. It is time to follow the lead of Japan. No Islamists allowed into the USA for any reason other than appearance at the U.N. and then only within certain parameters. Anyone, Islamists or Zaroastrian Tree Worshipers, who will not obey our laws on religious grounds get a ticket for immediate expulsion. Too bad we are too woosified to act in this way. Sooo afraid of being called an Islamaphobe that we give up to the 7th century barbarians of today.

The thing that should be obvious (but obviously not) is that there already exists a legal system here in the US. When someone comes from another country to live here, he or she implicitly agrees to live under the already existing laws. If they wanted to live under the laws they're leaving behind, I see a severe disconnect here. Either they want what we have, including our legal system, or they're here for nefarious purposes. Out legal system doesn't need any "improvement" from a legal system that they're escaping.

My favorite line for all wackos: "We don’t swim in your toilet, please don’t pee in our pool."

I remember a story a few weeks ago that was also in Texas. A separatist group set up their own system of governance and sent some type of letter to a judge if I remember correctly. They were raided by local police, state police and the FBI as a result. Should this Sharia Court be raided also? Why would they be shut down but the same people are okay with this?

Existing power structure does not react kindly to ANY form of competition.
The existing "justice" system is corrupted beyond belief and rarely delivers justice.
Restrict all forms to the constitution.
Competition is good when it is constitutional and objective.
I doubt the imams judgement system is either.
If it was, I could support it, just as I support alternative dispute resolution like arbitration.
