After Nice Attack, Texas Bans Sharia Law... Democrats And Muslims OUTRAGED According to reports, many Muslim residents in Irving are outraged after the city council passed a resolution in support of a new state house bill that some are insisting targets Islam. On Thursday night, council members reportedly voted on a resolution that supports Texas HB 562, forbidding the use of foreign law and codifies the supremacy of U.S. and state law. I think its the most disgraceful day in the city of Irving, Omar Suleiman, a Muslim resident in Irving told reporters. The elephant in the room is that its the anti-Sharia bill. Suleiman is not alone in his sentiment. Several Muslims in the city believe the resolution is a strong reaction to a new Islamic Tribunal opening in Irving. Judges had previously told community members their work is non-binding, and that they only had authority to deal with civil disputes like marriage. They also commented that U.S. and state laws supersede any decisions they make. This bill does not mention at all Muslims, Sharia Law, Islam, even religion, Mayor Beth Van Duyne responded, commenting that it is important to recognize the constitution and united behind U.S. and Texas laws. Respect them, obey them, embrace them. What do you think of the councils decision? Is it completely within their rights to protect the Constitution before all else?
