As more immigrants from countries who practice Sharia Law enter the US, they are also bringing their cultural standards with them. They are killing their daughters, and beheadding their wives.

They are also asking for more recognition under US law to accept Sharia Law in Muslim practices in the United States.

Violence DOES transcend all cultures, of course. So does corruption; so does revenge killing; so does mayhem committed in the name of religion or 'tribe'.

How OFTEN these things occur, though..what HAPPENS to the perpetrator when they occur....and how well it's accepted by the members of a culture, are things which vary widely. In some places, these things still carry the ability to 'shock and outrage' people....and they're still rooted out and prosecuted....and they're still looked at as "unacceptable behavior". In other places, these same things are looked at as "inevitable"...."just part of life"...and pretty much accepted as "that's the way it is".

In OUR culture, Timothy McVeigh will go down in history as a reviled "kook", a hated 'pariah', an evil 'nut case', and will be missed by NO ONE. In SOME places, their own local 'Timothy McVeigh' would be looked at as a "hero"...a "brave martyr".....would have inspired throngs of tearful mourners to parade at his funeral...and would have mothers naming their newborn babies "Timothy", in his honor.

In OUR culture, the Reverend Fred Phelps (the loony Kansas pastor who claims, among other things, that "God Hates F*gs"...and whose followers MOSTLY consist of a few family members) is regarded by 99% of us as a 'dangerous screwball', to whom NO ONE listens. In other cultures, the local version of Fred Phelps would have TENS of THOUSANDS of followers; would have his own talk show; and would be considered a wise spiritual leader...and he'd be able to 'whip up the hatred' of a huge segment of his society.

ALL cultures have these 'bad' elements...but there's a HUGE difference in what happens as a result.

Prominent Orchard Park man charged with beheading his wife : Don't Miss : The Buffalo News (http://www.buffalonews.com/494/story/578644.html - broken link)

Needless to say: those aspects of Sharia that conflict with US secular law need to be banned--------and, severe penalties meted out.

I posted the article I didn't write it. Frankly I agree whole heartedly with it and have no problem with anything that was stated in it.

That being said, since you are the one in doubt, it's up to you to disprove it in detail. Looking forward to reading your articles complete with links. In the meantime, here's some of the articles that I've posted which serves as confirmation of what was stated in the article.

Enjoy

No more reputable sources than the illegal aliens themselves. Wouldn't you agree?

No one is saying to get rid of ones heritage....but there comes a time when an immigrant must realize that the social mores of his homeland belong to his homeland. The US does not and should not have an obligation to make 'here' look like 'there'.
Agreed. Their Illegal Alien Crime Wave pretty much killed their mantra of simply coming here to work and looking for a better life.

There is indeed a vast cultural divide between America and the lawless 3rd world cultures.

wow. you take a big L here.

the burden of proof falls on you. posting some "article" from a suspect website is not enough. but i dont htink you understand what "reputable" or "source" really mean.

The link and the articles posted therein speak for themselves. Perhaps you should read the stories (which come from a variety of reputable news sources from various states). When you're reading, perhaps you should then ask yourself why you support your illegal alien ilk

Illegal aliens are the burden and the proof is in the heinous crimes that they commit on American soil day in and day out. Once again you use diversionary tactics to change the topic and once again, you fail to succeed at defending the indefensible.
