Sharia Law in the UK?

[Blitzen]

Yes it is (see 'variations' section).

I can't understand why Hexus has recently become home to so many bigoted, xenophobic and sometimes downright racist opinions. We seem to be collecting them in the same way we are collecting owners of broken Peugeot 306s.

Strange comment that.

Its weird if people dont agree with anything muslim/Jewish/Hindu/etc that are automatically branded a racist.
Thats exactly where the problem stems from.

If someone speaks up for Sharia Law for example in the Western World everyone says 'lets be tolerant'.
If someone speaks against it they are called racist!

even stranger

notice that the posts on here are not; "lets discuss the potential Pro's/Con's to the UK of Sharia Law", instead they are all based upon " sod off back to you own country", which can hardly be constrewed as constructive, nor conducive to the debate itself.

Has anyone thought that it might even help our country given its current situation? or are we all still treading the "oMG they arent from this country how dare they suggest something to us" route?

Isn't that Aussie quote an urban/internet myth?

that may be false but this is true:

Urban Legends Reference Pages: Muslims Out of Australia!

Can you read?
If so, read my post as you unfortunately only saw what you wanted to see and nothing else.

i can read very well thanks and although i initially referenced your post, the rest of my post was in reference to earlier posts within the thread, comprehend?

what if we could use Sharia law to deal with thugs and Chavs, like those who murdered the people in the park, as described in General Discussion.

Which would the defendant prefer to be "tried" in, British Courts, or Sharia Law?

[staffsMike]

Well when it comes to these little terrorists like the chavs in the park with that poor girl we have already been given the answer by world cinema.

Sharia law could work sure.. but Battle Royale would work so much better (I think I already said that in this thread )

For those that don't know, by this i mean stick them all on an island with a variety of weapons and it's last one alive gets to live

[Blitzen]

Yes Sharia Law would work on the chavs.

Fact is though, do we want to go back to medieval laws that only become effective when used by power hungry people?

I for one, do not want to live in a state where Sharia Law is involved. If i did i wouldve moved to Saudi.

In hindsight looking back on this saga shows just how disgusting our press really are.They just need someone to chew up and spit out for their 5 minutes of headlines.
