I think pinheads are going to LOVE Sharia Law!

The difference is, regardless of what the "people want", the US Constitution stands. During desegregation in the south, the majority were against it. But the majority does not rule, unless you can get a constitutional amendment.

The Constitution stands...

[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]The U. S. Constitution contains no express right to privacy. The Bill of Rights, however, reflects the concern of James Madison and other framers for protecting specific aspects of privacy, such as the privacy of beliefs (1st Amendment), privacy of the home against demands that it be used to house soldiers (3rd Amendment), privacy of the person and possessions as against unreasonable searches (4th Amendment), and the 5th Amendment's privilege against self-incrimination, which provides protection for the privacy of personal information. In addition, the Ninth Amendment states that the "enumeration of certain rights" in the Bill of Rights "shall not be construed to deny or disparage other rights retained by the people." The meaning of the Ninth Amendment is elusive, but some persons (including Justice Goldberg in his Griswold concurrence) have interpreted the Ninth Amendment as justification for broadly reading the Bill of Rights to protect privacy in ways not specifically provided in the first eight amendments.

Thus we have abortion now a Constitutional right !...[/SIZE][/FONT]The Constitution stands...?
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica][SIZE=-1]
[/SIZE][/FONT]Two U.S. Supreme Court rulings in 2008 and 2010 clarified the meaning of the Second Amendment. In District of Columbia v. Heller, the Court ruled that the Second Amendment protects an individual's right to possess a firearm unconnected with service in a militia,[1][2] and to use that arm for traditionally lawful purposes, such as self-defense within the home.

Yet we have hundreds of regulations and laws prohibiting your right to have, carry, and in some cases even own firearms...and what kind of firearms.....The Constitution stands...?

Now we have the interstate commerce laws..The Commerce Clause is an listed in Article I, Section 8, Clause 3)

being used to prohibit a state from enforcing a FEDERAL LAW....The Constitution stands...?

Its plain how the US Constitution can be twisted and spun to justify anything...no matter how plain the words in the Constitution .....
and some fools refuse to see it happening because of partisan political hackery....

Niemöller in a January 6, 1946 speech before representatives of the Confessing Church in Frankfurt.[1] "THEY CAME FIRST for the Communists,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Communist.

THEN THEY CAME for the trade unionists,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist.

THEN THEY CAME for the Jews,
and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a Jew.

THEN THEY CAME for me
and by that time no one was left to speak up."

This new found religious awakening from the pinhead liberals, is really encouraging! Until now, I was really starting to worry about their souls, thinking they didn't have any inkling of religious faith, or respect for religious beliefs. Now that they have come out in favor of Islam, I think it's a great day!

I think you guys and gals are going to absolutely LOVE Islam and Sharia Law! It will once and for all, put to rest so many of the social issues you've had for so many decades here in America. Think of all the time you will have to pray to Allah, now that you don't have to worry about all of these pesky issues anymore? No more battles to wage, no more protests to go to... just being obedient followers of Islam, without any more stress! It will be GREAT!

First of all, no more Abortion issue... In fact, Sharia mandates that we kill those who believe in abortion, so everyone will be pro-life under Sharia. Furthermore, anyone who believes women have a right... not just to abortion, but anything... are also killed under Sharia. So there won't be any more charges of sexism, those complaints won't exist when everyone believes in Sharia Law. The beloved issue of Gay Marriage will be settled, as those who practice homosexuality are stoned to death, so why would they need to marry? But the really big thing is, the POLITICS!

Pinheads spend an enormous amount of their daily lives, immersed in politics! Supporting this candidate, denouncing that candidate, keeping up with what the Democrats believe today versus yesterday, and which side of the fence they need to be on... it all takes up so much of your lives, but under Sharia, all of that is taken care of for you! The religious leaders decide who is your ruler, and you are governed by the laws of Sharia, so no need to worry about politics anymore. Think of all the free time you'll now have? Now, of course, you will be required to spend some of that free time praying to Allah, and they may come take your son or daughter, to go strap bombs to themselves and blow up a market somewhere, but these are very small sacrifices for the joy of living in peace together!

No more "unjust wars" with Sharia and Islam... no sir! Everything is a "Jihad" part of the "struggle" and Allah is on your side in that! So any "war" would only be part of the continued struggle, and something your God supports you doing, so it's all good! Oh, one more thing, but it's not a biggie for you guys, you have to give up all your worldly possessions, donate them to Allah. We'll miss you here on the Internet, but we understand completely! It's just what you have to do. Enjoy your new Religion, pinheads!

Surprisingly, the people that routinely try to amend the federal and state constitutions to reflect fundamentalist religious values are overwhelmingly conservative. The school prayer constitutional amendment craze, all the ban on gay marriage amendments; and state bans on reproductive choice.


Amazingly, the only constitutional amendments in the last 40 years liberals supported that I'm aware of, involved expanding civil rights. Equal rights for women, and allowing 18 year olds to vote.


Care to explain?

This threat of Sharia Law is bogus and you know it is.

Look at the issues that have mobilized the liberals most.

Gay Marriage
Universal Healthcare
Women's Rights
Abortion
Birthcontrol



Do you really think Sharia Law is a threat? Terrorism might be, but Sharia Law?


This is simply a pouting response when you ran out of actual reasons to oppose a religious group building what they want on private property with private fund.

Normally that would be exactly what conservative want, except the people are the wrong people doing it.

This sort of control over private property and lives is typically what the conservatives oppose.

And ya'll know as well as I do that the threat of Sharia Law is about as real as the threat of Britney Speares winning the Nobel Prize for chemistry.

This does not support YOUR argument. It supports your oppositions argument.

They are fighting for everyones rights, not just those that fit with their agenda or that look like them.

You want to let them come for one religious group, and then think that precedent won't be used for the rest of them? You are delusional.

You need a lesson in history, as do many pinhead liberal democrats..

The 26th amendment...voting age...passed the Senate 94-0
and the House 401-19
On July 5, 1971, during the amendment's signing ceremony in the East Room, President Richard Nixon talked about his confidence in the youth of America.

I guess that might quality as being supported by liberals....and conservatives also, you fool!

The ERA Amendment was shit canned by a majority of the states...

There were no amendments involved expanding civil rights. And the democrats fought tooth and nail against Civil Rights laws for years....

A Democrat spoke for twenty-four hours and eighteen minutes during a 1957 filibuster of a civil rights bill.
Democrats also filibustered the Civil Rights Act of 1964

The pinheads get carried away so easily.....

Its funny to watch you pinheads squirm when the truth hits some close to home and exposes your absurd liberal hypocrisy....even in this facetious thread of Dixies....
but it adds to the humor....

facetious...look it up pinheads....
Its been entertaining....thanks

It wasn't meant as support for my argument...
It was meant to remind you what happens when you ignore or refuse realize what is really happening around you....(because you're a hack)

Well Sharia seems to have developed about 50 million new followers they didn't have last week, just by wanting to build a mosque at ground zero... I can only imagine how many more they will get when they start blowing up shit and really terrorizing you pinheads. You'll all be breaking your necks to adopt Sharia, especially if you believe the right is opposed to it!

Now, Jarhead thinks it cute to support these cats at the present time, and he maintains that he would never accept Sharia law, but that's okay, he'll be killed rather swiftly, as that is how they handle people who are defiant against Sharia. He'll plead and beg with them, telling them how he spent countless hours defending Islam here, and defeating "the right" by politicizing all of this, which enabled them to gain power, but his appeals will fall on deaf ears, there is no tolerance for those who refuse to accept Sharia.

I have chosen my be-speckled burka and pray rug, haven't you?

You seem so un-American, you don't have any faith in our military might. I am offended, for my conservative side of the family, that you think your values would be so easily lost and our military so easily defeated.

I may be a pinhead, but I am also a woman who won't go willing, I love my Amendment to the Constitution that made me a full fledged American voter!

Really?
Who said
"there is no military solution in Iraq, and there never was" ?

Who said
"to immediately begin to remove our combat troops. Not in six months or one year..." ?

Who said
"This war is lost"

I'll let in on a little secret....they are all quotes from pinheads, liberal democrat pinheads....you know...the ones that must have thought our military so easily defeated, the ones with no faith in our militar, the ones that assumed we couldn't prevail.

and if you think our values have not eroded in the last 50 or 60 years, you're probably bain dead too.

Several generals and admirals and that is why they became "retired" because they did not believe in the Cheney/Rumsfeld/Wolfie plan. It is all of us pinheads and now many military men who once believed Iraq would be a good things say it wasn't and isn't. I have several nephews and a niece who say that America is protected and is protected well and I believe in these young people. My retired Col brother in law says you are talking out your ass, American Muslims like the American way of life, and especially Muslim woman, as has been pointed out on here, because they are Muslim and have rights as American women, funny, Iraq use to be the most educated, moderate Muslim nation, until we came to town. Now look at Iraq, no government, no education, hardly, and very much less free or moderate!

We lost over 4,000 fine Americans, killed hundreds of thousands of Iraqis and for what? Iran is now the fat cat in the ME! Iraq is destroyed. we have no oil, like they wanted and there is not a democracy in Iraq, either. No stability, whatsoever! Now tell me, what did we win? The hearts and minds of the people?

Democrats = liberals to you, am I wrong, and Dixiecrats are not Democrats in the usual sense of the word. They did not support the liberal agenda of their Northern brethern, but had in fact broken broken with the Republican party. There is absolutely nothing wrong with my reading comprehension and I never stated that you said liberal, to me it was implied as all your negative comments are implied that pinhead liberals do it. Civil Rights was not by any means a conservative agenda!

 

[Dixie - In Memoriam]

Democrats = liberals to you, am I wrong,

Yep, you're extremely wrong! And come November, you're going to find out just how wrong you are. We're going to see real election results which will show us just how many "liberals" are democrats, and how many "democrats" are decent people. I'm figuring about 20-25% is what you'll draw. The other 3/4 of the country aren't bat shit insane!

I guess this means 2% or less of the population is going to rise up and take over the other 98% by force, or something.

I'd better get my pepper spray ready, since I don't own a gun.

Nope, it means that about half the country is brain-dead stupid like you, and will do everything they can to enable the 2% to grow into 10%... 15%... 30%... 51%... like they have across Europe... of course, you want to be like the Europeans anyway, right?

Sure, I like Europeans. What's not to like?

Your argument that "...the 2% [Muslims] to grow into 10%... 15%... 30%... 51%..." is similar to comments I've heard conservatives say about illegal immigrants. Something like "in X years this country will have a Hispanic majority".

Is there anybody out there you can feel safe with besides white Anglo-Saxon Protestants?

There is nothing wrong with a Hispanic majority but do you care at all if a quarter are illegal?
