BREAKING: Bill Fails, Sharia Law Takes Over South Carolina And Now They Can Do THIS According to reports, a bill that was put in front of the South Carolina Statement was narrowly defeated in the Senate on Wednesday. If passed, the bill would have made it illegal for Muslims to use Sharia law in defense of crimes committed in the state. The measure was sponsored by Charleston Republican Rep. Chip Limehouse. It was designed to prevent an attorney from arguing that the laws of a clients home country allow for certain actions in South Carolina. Im not surprised, Limehouse said of the Senates decision. The Senate can be the graveyard of many good ideas. Still, Limehouse insists the measure is necessary to curb the advancement of terrorist organizations in the country. To me a ban on Sharia law is kind of like a ban on poisonous gas, he commented. It just makes sense. The bill ultimately died in a 9-10 vote Wednesday. It was be at least another year before it can be brought up again. I couldnt, in good conscience, support what it represents, Sen. Ronnie Sabb, who helped defeat the bill, told reporters. A law like this sends us backwards. Of course, many were quick to point out the hypocrisy in Sabbs statements. Yes. What could be more forward-thinking than stoning for adultery, amputations for theft, murder of apostates, and the institutionalized subjugation of women and non-Muslims? Author Robert Spencer commented. Its the wave of the future! What do you think of the Senates decision? Did they just deny a measure that could protect our country from further harm at the hands of radical Islam?
