Frightening Poll: Large Number of American Muslims Believe Sharia Better Than US Constitution

-By Warner Todd Huston

A new poll finds that a very large number of American Muslims feel that sharia law is better than US law. And most consider themselves to be a member of the Democrat Party–a party that not surprisingly also has little interest in the US Constitution.

The poll of American Muslims was taken this June for The Center for Security Policy and here are some of the Poll’s findings:

When asked how they define “sharia,” 71 percent essentially see sharia as a guide for all aspects of a Muslim’s life, one more important than the US way of life or US law.

When asked if sharia should replace the Constitution only 43 percent said no and an astounding 33 percent said yes. So, when asked straight on a small majority shied from saying the want the Constitution replaced with sharia.

But American Muslims came closer to how they really feel when they were asked if they thought Muslims in the USA should be judged under US law. Only 30 percent said that US courts should be first and foremost as the place for adjudicating legal matters while 51 percent said that they should be allowed to ignore US law and be free to use their own sharia courts instead.

Again, 51 percent agreed that US Muslims should be allowed to choose sharia courts over US law. This is astounding and shows that a large number of Muslims don’t have any vested interested in the American way of life and feel that Islam should replace American law.

Worse these people saw no conflict between sharia and US law, either. An amazing 60 percent said that sharia is no different than US law and further felt that sharia is compatible with the US Constitution.

Fortunately, these same America Muslims said they didn’t yet feel that violence against Americans and American laws was justified. But how long can they feel this way if they think that they shouldn’t have to live under US law here in the US? With the attitude that US law is not important to them, this is a pre-radicalized position that one would think would eventually become a move to violence as they seek to get their way in what they’ll claim is an exercise in “democracy.”

And to show that radicalization is, indeed, possible, only 16 percent said that they think the Muslim Brotherhood is a terror group.

It was also interesting that 48 percent said they were registered Democrats while only 19 percent said they were Republicans. I guess the Democrats harbor the sharia wing of the Muslim population.

Of course, since Democrats don’t much care for the US Constitution, I guess it only goes to follow that Muslims would flock to the Democrat Party. They are birds of a feather, after all.

Granted it is no wonder that Obama is importing into the USA hundreds of thousands of new Muslim immigrants straight from some of the worst, most terror infected parts of the Muslim world. He sees it as a vote getting scheme.

Finally, we must fight these Muslims who think that sharia is just as good as American jurisprudence. This sort of multiculturalism, the idea that sharia courts are “just as good” as western law, has been practiced in Britain for decades, now and it has led to the literal–not the metaphorical–rape of white British teens. We are only now just finding out the extent of the thousands of white British girls who were forced into sex slavery by Muslims in just ONE district in Britain over the last two decades.

That WILL happen here if we allow Muslims to continue thinking that their backwards, dangerous, barbaric sharia “law” is just as good as the US Constitution.
