Should immigrants be required to disavow Sharia law?
Should immigrants be required to disavow Sharia law? (Tancredo, Jim Harper/Cato)
Rep. Tom Tancredo has introduced H.R. 6975 (link), a very short bill that would amend the Immigration and Nationality Act to say:
(G) SHARIA LAW SYSTEM- Any alien who fails to attest, in accordance with procedures specified by the Secretary of Homeland Security, that the alien will not advocate installing a Sharia law system in the United States is inadmissible.
Needless to say, the usual suspects won't like it, and one of those is Jim Harper from the Cato Institute, a supposed libertarian group with some interesting funders and which has put forth some odiously anti- and un-American ideas. Says Harper (cato-at-liberty.org/2008/09/20/fear-of-sharia-oh-please):
But more importantly, a law like this communicates precisely the wrong thing to new immigrants and the world at large. It tells the world that we’re a weak, fearful country, and that we believe Sharia law is possible in the United States. It tells the world that we’ve come off our traditional moorings and that we no longer believe in free speech and tolerance of all opinions, no matter how wrong.
Why take the risk just to prove something?
However, Harper is willing to make a guarantee:
There is no possibility — none — that Sharia law will be established in the United States. Not by any government body at any level.

No it provides a good basis for mediation or voluntary arbitration but it should not be imposed involuntarily on family members other Muslims or the general community
I support enforcement and see its lack as bad for the 3rd World as well. Remittances are now mostly spent on consumption not production assets. Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

Never. If they want Sharia then they should go to a country that uses it.

ANYONE WHO WANTS TO IMMIGRATE TO USA SHOULD BE WILLING TO ABIDE BY OUR LAWS AND WILLING TO ASSIMILATE TO OUR CULTURE. IF THAT IS AGAINST THEIR RELIGION OR VALUES .....THEN THEY SHOULD IMMIGRATE TO A DIFFERENT COUNTRY THAT IS MORE CONDUCIVE TO THE BELIEFS AND LIFESTYLE THAT THEY INTEND TO LIVE BY. THE IMMIGRANT MUST CHANGE, NOT THE HOST COUNTRY.
