You didn't answer my question:

How can 2% of the population impose their will on the other 98%? You must think that the few radical Muslims who would like to see Sharia law in the US must be superheros or something. Your fear is baseless.

Kindly answer my question.

Pakistan doesn't even have Sharia law.

Manipulating idiots with paranoia is all this is. It doesn't make you safer. It doesn't change anything except that educated people look at you and think you're ridiculous.
Many people in OK are disgusted.

It means that it made some people feel like they accomplished something to hide the fact that they haven't done a damn thing.

Recall in France, there are "no go" areas where the police won't even enter, in Muslim areas of the country..
Those awful French people just refuse to assimilate.

Looks like they're going to have to be forced to assimilate.

Ok, so you're line of thinking is that if there are "threats backed by violence" that 98% of the US would back down and Sharia law would be imposed? You have a pretty low opinion of American fortitude, it appears.

Since a very small percentage of the 2% of American Muslims would actually support Sharia law (Remember they don't even have it in Pakistan) this seems pretty far-fetched, does it not?

The Patriot Act was passed on a threat.

American fortitude?

Give me a FKN break!

Sharia Law does exist in Pakistan. It isn't state-mandated but it is fully enforced in large chunks of the country. Pakistan is pretty darn lawless.

An educated student of history understands that what happens in Britain usually happens in the US within 50 years or less.

Taking prudent measure to avert a similar fate is only wise. Failure to learn from history and what is happening with the Islamification of Western Europe would only insure repeating their history here. Obviously, Oklahomans proved by their vote that they do not want that for their state. If you do not live in Oklahoma what is your problem with their voting population exercising their rights? Are you a globalist?
