AntiOver the past few months, weve seen a growing concern that Muslims will eventually try to demand that Islamic law be used in state courts. One of the major problems is that these foreign customs are often directly at odds with longstanding laws regarding issues like marriage and children. According to recent reports, the Florida House Civil Justice Subcommittee just approved a bill entitled the Application of Foreign Law in Certain Cases. The measure is designed to prevent any foreign legal code from being used in state courts. This marks the fourth time that a similar provision has been presented to Florida lawmakers. The previous three attempts ultimately failed. If this measure passes into law, Florida courts will be prohibited from considering any provision of foreign law inconsistent with the constitutions of the United States or the state of Florida. Of course, Democrats have been quick to criticize the measure as prejudiced, though the bill does not name Shariah law specifically. What do you think? Do you support these precautions?
