Didn't Democrats say Sharia law would never be used in America to usurp American laws.

A judge in Florida has announced he will use Islamic law to decide a case.
The case is between a Tampa Bay mosque and several men who say they were wrongfully fired as trustees of the mosque.
The St. Petersburg Times reported the men got an Islamic scholar to rule in their favor, and they want Florida's courts to uphold that ruling. The case could decide who controls $2.2 million the mosque received from the state after some of its land was used in a road project.
Hillsborough Circuit Judge Richard Nielsen has agreed to see if leaders of the Islamic Education Center of Tampa correctly followed the teachings of the Koran in their decision.
"This case will proceed under Ecclesiastical Islamic Law," Nielsen wrote in a decision handed down March 3.

Why bother. . . Ignorance is going to do what it does no matter what I say.
And don't forget to pay attention in grammar class - when a word beings with a vowel or the sound of a vowel, the "a" becomes "an". Just makes you look more intelligent and credible when you speak and write the language properly.
You lie! (to quote a formerly prominent Republican Congressman....)
Sharia Law is non-secular rules (like Kosher dietary Law) and has nothing to do with Contract Law, which is what this case is about...
B.S.!!!
Florida judges use AMERICAN.... specifically the State law of Florida to decide cases. Period.
And they use the TERMS OF A CONTRACT... to determine the meaning of a contract.
Anyone telling you otherwise.... is selling you THEIR OWN agenda.
If you are this gullible.... there's not a lot anyone can do to help you.
Sounds like an appeal before it even gets started
Sharia law was the agreed form of law UNDER CONTRACT by the two Muslim parties. This was voluntary, and not forced on a non-Muslim. I still think religion is stupid, though.
You know it's time to start dragging judges and politicians out into the street, but no one wants to listen.
Because the Judge is a liberal. He should be removed from the bench
Gooooood Lord
America is sooooo over
we need to purge all mooslims now
