This is actual law in many places around the world,
Which sucks, but is entirely irrelevant in the US.
OK, fair enough to some extent, I agree that people clamoring for sharia law and/or jihad isn't a real threat as long as individuals never act on their barbarous ideology (unfortunately many individuals do), and as long as Muslims don't become the majority locally, regionally, or nationally (they have in some areas here, and regionally/nationally elsewhere in the world). A pretty good litmus test for how the progression to sharia is going would be to walk through a neighborhood wearing a yarmulke and see how you are treated. That's not safe in some neighborhoods of Paris these days, although I have a vague understanding that it's politically incorrect for me to point that out. It's weird how Jew-hatred goes in and out of vogue among the self-designated intelligentsia of Western culture; currently it's "in".
and it's amazing to see liberal non-Muslims "see no evil, hear no evil" etc. when they fail to admit sharia is creeping onto their own turf.
Or it could be that "creeping onto their own turf" is utter bullshit fear mongering.
One of us is in denial about the obvious, that's for sure.
I vote for sideslash, then. Clearly your name is pejorative enough.
Aha, that is creative. I hadn't thought of it that way.
