Florida Dems say YES to sharia

Written by David DiCrescenzo on . Posted in Op-Ed

Is it just me or are Democrats, (and RINOs) at every level of government hell bent on the destruction of our country?  There is an endless list of examples that I could cite, however this issue just got into my craw today.

We have a lot of serious problems in our nation, and without a doubt, some are more important than others in their scope.  However, few reach the level of the formerly stealthy and now blatant, out in the open, islamization of our culture.  I know some will write this off right here and now because of that last statement as some sort of "islamophobic” something or other, but to quote my friends over at Bare Naked Islam.."It isn’t Islamophobia when they really are trying to kill you.”

This week the Florida Senate finally, after many years, brought the issue of anti-sharia Law to a vote on the Senate floor.  Due to the influence of such political hacks as former Senate President Mike Haridopolos who in one of his infamous final acts in that post refused to allow it on the floor, in part due to pressure from CAIR and other similar groups, such bills have previously been stalled, laid dormant, and otherwise not heard.  Allowing this bill to be voted on would have certainly improved his legacy in the minds of a lot of people, myself included.  Kudos to FL Sen. Alan Hayes for never giving up on it.

Simply put, such bills are designed to ensure that no foreign law of any kind, and especially 'sharia Law,’ which in case you don’t know is the thread and fabric of islam, should ever be used in any American Court…regardless of the preference of the parties involved.  This is after all America and we have a perfectly good Constitution of our own.  

I find it stunning that any elected official, sworn to uphold and defend that Constitution would somehow find it okay to vote against any bill that would prevent the imposition of any foreign law. However, enter the liberal democrat mindset!  The recent Florida vote wound up a strict partisan vote which I believe shows exactly where these cowardly fools stand.  Not a few, or even only a half dozen, but every Florida Senator with a 'D’ after his or her name, voted NO on this bill. 

Some of the reasons offered are stunning for their ignorance of the facts.  Senator Eleanor Lobel was quoted as saying, "the message the Senate was sending out was against a specific group of people,” "and there are no individual cases actually on the record of sharia law being implemented in the courts or in any other state."  Not been used Senator Lobel…really?!  Maybe, just like former Gov. Gary Johnson of NM, you should check some of this stuff before you make such outrageous comments.  It’s happened lots of places, Tampa among them.  Have you ever heard of Dearborn, MI? Are you unaware of what goes on with the Police and in courts in that city?  Do you think your constituency isn’t aware of it?

Senator Geraldine Thompson (D-Orlando) voted for the bill in committee last year, but opposed it today. She said that the law wasn't necessary for a number of reasons, such as the fact that Florida judges already have the power to apply Florida and U.S. law in courts.  And they do, however given the propensity of a new breed of leftist leaders such as 'republicrat’ NJ Gov. Chris Christie to appoint muslims to the bench…they may decide not to use U.S. law given the option.  Not to mention that my head explodes every time I consider how our POTUS has placed many sharia following muslims in high places of authority and security.  Connect the dots! 

Senator Maria Sachs stated "I have never been able to understand why we need this bill,” adding that Governor Rick Scott has gone "out of his way" to foster business with other countries, and "now we don't want to tell those same investors, when it comes to issues of family law, we're back in the 18th century."  Excuse me Senator?!  We’re back in the 18th Century?!  Check your facts sista, the sharia is stuck in the 7th Century and in case you haven’t heard, it treats your women constituents worse than farm animals and would put any of your gay constituents to death.

I fully recognize that legislators surround themselves with and listen to the opinions of their staffs and advisers, however they should be vigilant to also listen to informative opposing views before voting on such weighty matters.  For example, instead of listening only to those who are obviously grossly under informed about this subject, they might want to counsel with some of the known experts such as Frank Gaffney, Tom Trento, William Saxton, Brigitte Gabriel, Geert Wilders, Dawn Ellen, and so many more.  Any of these people could easily point out the inherent dangers posed by allowing the purveyors of islam to strengthen their foothold in America via the imposition of sharia law.

Shame on every Florida Senator that voted 'NO’ on this bill, and any Representative when it gets to the House, and shame on any other state or federal legislator that would vote against such a bill; one that is critical to the security of our children and our nation.  You are doing us wrong with such votes, and you need to take your leftist, destructive ideology and leave us the hell alone.
