Right they are not throwing gays off of tall buildings in the US

but they are throwing them off tall buildings in the ME

and killing them in the Middle East


Where is the LGBT outrage? I have not seen any.

I don't live in the Middle East, and the laws of the country I live in are not applicable in the Middle East. Is it horrible that these things happen there? Yes. But don't pretend like it is a pressing security issue for the US.

It is not a security issue

it is a blatant hypocritical issue

ignore it in the ME, and go overboard in screaming about little things like cakes in the US.

You'd think the LGBT community would be up in arms about routine killing of gays in the ME, but not a peep, because it is politically incorrect to criticize the ME "customs"

Or maybe because (to generalize as you are) the LGBT community is sane enough to not be frightened of what is happening in a third-world country on the opposite side of the globe.

Since when do conservatives care about homosexuals anyway?

You are generalizing, just because I am conservative, doesn't mean I am against homosexuals. Quite the opposite, my philosophy is what one does in the bedroom is not my business. I am strongly opposed to anyone, in any country, killing people who are harming no one with what they do in private with a consenting adult.

Why don't feminists care about women in other countries? That's hypocritical.

Why doesn't the LBGT community care about homosexuals in other countries? That's hypocritical.

When feminism and LGBT ignore and by ignoring condone this behavior by saying
"it doesn't affect gays in this country"
it is a cultural choice for "them", well
then when it happens in western countries
in "no go" zones, which do exist in Europe
where non-Muslims dare not enter
because Shariah is the law of the zone
will they again say it is "cultural"
and ignore it due to political correctness?

So in what made-up version of reality do you think people don't care about what's happening in the Middle East? What are they supposed to do about it? Other be full of irrational anger and false outrage and spout Fox talking points, that is.

What are they supposed to do?

They are supposed to do what they have done in the US to end it.

You say if the LGBT and feminists loudly and overtly condemn the massive oppression and legalized murder of women and gays, that would be false outrage.

Wow! No wonder the LGBT and feminists haven't spoken up, they really don't care and won't really care is what you implied with the "false outrage" statement.

It's the equivalent of saying "as long as they don't come for me, I'll stay silent" until it creeps in
and it is too late to stop it.

They are trying to bring it HERE (to the U.S.).


THAT is the problem we have.

The muslims want to rape their own children (and yes if someone has sex with a child-they are a child rapist,except under sharia law)-murder other muslims in the ME-fine.

Keep it over there.

All these groups care about is image.

Common sense never enters the equation.

a reply to: FalcoFan

Because Neo nazi's/KKK are seldom, if ever, moderate. In fact, fanatic comes quickly to mind when Neo-nazis and Klukkers come up in conversation.

Why do Muslims always get a break? Are you serious with that? I see nothing but condemnation of Muslims in many places, including this very thread. All of which very conveniently forgetting that not all Muslims are extreme in their views.

Jews have their own courts and have been operating them here for ages.

I wasn't aware Irving Texas was located in the United Kingdom.

You could have made an effort to read the article.

Imagine having to go through the trauma of an acrimonious divorce knowing all the way through the process that the community you live in will still consider you to be married.

When Miriam decided her marriage to her husband was no longer working she soon discovered that getting a divorce in Britain's law courts would be the least of her worries.

As a devout Orthodox Jew from a close-knit community in north London, the only way she would really be free to get on with her life would be if her husband granted her a get – a Jewish divorce document authenticated by a rabbi and given by a husband to his wife releasing her from their marriage.

Within Halakha (Jewish law) only the husband has the power to grant a get and if he refuses his wife becomes an agunah, or chained wife. Trapped in a marriage they cannot get out of, an agunah is often shunned by her community, which forbids her from remarrying and reminds her that any further children she has with anyone other than her husband would be considered illegitimate.

My original post has to do with Sharia tribunals in IRVING TEXAS, NOT THE UNITED KINGDOM

United Kingdom does not = America.

An article about Religious courts in England have absolutely nothing to do with an article about Religious courts in America. Yes, once I found out the article was about courts in England I stopped reading because it has absolutely NOTHING to do with what is going on on US soil.

Fine they can try all they want!
As it stands, they are no where near achieving that

There are plenty that are trying to get what is said in the bible as law in this country.
And there is just as sick as stuff in there too.

It is being kept over there, people just have their panties all up in a bunch cause they keep telling them selfs that as soon as tomorrow we will be living in a shariah law US which just couldn't be further from the truth.

It must just be the worst thing, going around every day completely terrified of billions of normal people who call their god by a different name.

It's utterly amazing to see how many people have so little faith in their country, their constitution, and their own ability and power to discern and stand up against either a real or imaginary threat.

It's also amazing how people think that Muslims will somehow manage to convince all the existing Americans here to convert to their ways.

Yeah. That's exactly what I meant

Probably because she isn't cutting innocent peoples' heads off/burning them alive.

It must just be the worst thing, going around every day completely terrified of dozens of millions of normal people who choose to carry a weapon to defend themselves, thinking they are going to murder you and your family, simply because they are in possession of a handgun.

Here is the way I see it and have seen such:

As long as both participants agree to the ruling, and sign a document stating such, this is viewed as an act of arbitration. In that the rules are binding, it is like a contract that both parties signed. Any one can do that, and ultimately it does and will stand up in a court of law.

For example: 2 people who are, for the sake of argument are christian. And they sign a document that they are both willing to let a minister be the judge as to what is fair, and the minster agrees to hear and act in that capacity, then it is a binding agreement and a judge will not overrule it. So far it is all legal and really there is nothing illegal about it.

We are terrified by people who:
think marrying a girl to an adult at 6 years old is acceptable
think it is acceptable to kill women because they "dishonor" their family
think it is acceptable to kill people who don't worship the same God they do
think it is acceptable to throw homosexuals off buildings and kill them in any way they wish
think it is acceptable to behead people because they are different from themselves
refuse to acknowledge this is horrifically evil, because it is "cultural"

It is not a terror of Muslims in general,
it is a terror of what the Muslim religion condones
as acceptable behavior

Feel like discussing the topic at hand?

a reply to: Krazysh0t

I think it's the result of ultra right wing news being drilled into their heads non stop. Fox Fear Porn 24/7 is creating a whole slew of paranoid psycho's who are now in such a state of panic over Gay Marriage and Muslim Terrorism that all they need do is point to any target and the zombie hoards launch into action.

a reply to: AshOnMyTomatoes

Kind of like the liberals are when it comes to the right to bear arms?

All I hear is them being terrified of law abiding citizens being armed.

Yes-it must be horrible to live in that kind of fear.

Ah, interesting. First, thanks for admitting you're terrified. That's the first step to getting over your fears.

Second, do you support the US's military involvement in the Middle East? Why do you think the US is over there?

a reply to: sdcigarpig

Yeah, arbitration has been around a long time in the USA and is not illegal or new.

a reply to: ~Lucidity

It's also amazing that they don't recognize that Christianity has been trying to impose its own version of Sharia Law since forever, and this despite a majority Protestant population in the country. Why do these same people think that a minority population will be more successful where they've failed?
