Predictably, CAIR has a problem with it.
Via Chicago Tribune:
The Council on American-Islamic Relations said Tuesday that it has written all members of the Indiana General Assembly, urging them not to consider such a bill.Again, Islam is a political system and Sharia Law is supposed to be the supreme law of the land.
The group says the proposal is a "fear-mongering" attack on Islam and "un-American to its core." It says Sharia is a guide to Islamic religious practice and is similar to those in other religious traditions.
The U.S. Constitution begs to differ - in no uncertain terms - in Article VI:
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, anything in the Constitution or laws of any State to the contrary notwithstanding.How can banning something that usurps the United States Constitution be Un-American?
