CAN STATES MAKE AND UPHOLD THEIR OWN LAWS?

(Jan. 11, 2012) — The U.S. 10th Circuit Court of Appeals has upheld a ruling by U S District Court Judge Vicki Miles-LeGrange that Oklahoma State Question 755, passed on November 2, 2010, is unconstitutional. The State Question was passed by 70% of the voters of the State of Oklahoma to ban the use of Sharia Law, International Law, or the laws of any foreign country in the state.
The Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) filed a lawsuit saying the question discriminated against Muslims in Oklahoma. In the original filing, CAIR’s Oklahoma director called the bill a case of “anti-Muslim bigotry.”
“This is an important reminder that the Constitution is the last line of defense against a rising tide of anti-Muslim bigotry in our society, and we are pleased that the appeals court recognized that fact,” said Muneer Awad. “We are also hopeful that this decision serves as a reminder to politicians wishing to score political points through fear-mongering and bigotry.”
The 10th Circuit agreed with Judge Miles-LeGrange and upheld her ruling in an opinion released on January 10, 2012.
Oklahoma Attorney General Scott Pruitt said that states have the right to establish their own court systems and have a say in which sets of laws are followed.
“With the decision by the U.S. 10th Circuit Court of Appeals to uphold a temporary stay of State Question 755, the case will return to the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma to determine its constitutionality,” Attorney General Scott Pruitt said. “My office will continue to defend the state in this matter and proceed with the merits of the case.”
Correction:
“…null and Void”
“ANY Law that is Repugnant to the Constitution is NULL and VOID”-Marbury v. Madison.SCOTUS,(1803)
Sharia Law, with its mandatory requirement that all people convert to Islam or pay a tax,it’s non existent Freedom of Religion, its establishment as THEE Government “Religion”, its severe mysogenistic precepts, its immoral practices, etc. makes Sharia “REPUGNANT to the Constitution”
ANY Judge that rules in favor of Sharia is MALFEASANT.
I’d go as far to say that Sharia Law and the Islam Religion is one in the same, and how can you practice your religion without obeying the laws of that religion. And since our Constitution cannot respect the establishment of any religion, then it also cannot respect the laws of that religion.
We (the U.S) should not recognize Islam as either.

We (the U.S.) should recognize Islam for what it is, ban it, and deport all who believe it.
God Bless America
First they came for the Capitalists, and I did not speak out —
Because I was not a Capitalist.
Then they came for the Conservatives, and I did not speak out —
Because I was not a Conservative.
Then they came for the Christians, and I did not speak out —
Because I was not a Christian.
Then they came for me — and there was no one left to speak for me.
I started to talk about states’ rights. HERE’S THE BOTTOM LINE: SHARIA LAW IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL!!!!!!!
The Tenth Circuit Court and the other tyrants in black robes are now in the camp of the enemy. These judges have betrayed their oaths to the constitution and the republic for which it stands. They are also pathetically poor scholars of the constitution, for that document and the other foundational works of our nation cannot be reconciled with Islam, sharia law, or jihad in any way, shape or form. Perhaps they no longer care what the once-hallowed document says. We the people very badly need a means of removing these judicial tyrants from the bench.
GUESS THE JUDGES CAN’T READ THE ‘CONSTITUTION’,
Worse yet, the Judges can read but they ignore the U.S. Constitution.
It should be obvious as to what violates our constitution, yet it has been violated
time and again for many years now. Increasingly so as of late.
It has become popular for those fond of the contradictory term “politically correct”
to claim diversity is a strength, but as any fool has herd before, a house divided
cannot stand. It is a matter of common sense that mixing to diverse of cultures is
folly. One will fear contamination by the other, or one will try to dominate the
other, the later being the proclaimed cause of islam.
A people who wish to immigrate to another country with no intention to assimilate
and except the laws of that country would be better served to stay in their country
of origin. I personally would define such action as an invasion.
These judges need to be impeached:
“Article VI, clause 2: — This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding.”
