SkyDekker 1,465 #27 February 13, 2015 ryoder ***"Christian law" being upheld over "American Law" and it is celebrated, while the mere mention of sharia has the same people frothing at the mouth: This is America, they should conform or get the fuck out. Never know whether it is ignorance or just plain stupidity. Wednesday night Jon Stewart pointed out that Alabama's anti-foreign-law amendment was passed. Here is the ballot text: Quote Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of Alabama of 1901, to prohibit the State of Alabama from giving full faith and credit to public acts, records, or judicial proceedings of another state that violate the public policy of the State of Alabama and to prohibit the application of foreign law in violation of rights guaranteed natural citizens by the United States and Alabama Constitutions, and the statutes, laws, and public policy thereof, but without application to business entities. (Proposed by Act 2013-269) Full amendment text: http://ballotpedia.org/Alabama_Foreign_Laws_in_Court,_Amendment_1_(2014),_constitutional_text_changes He went on to point out that Christian law was written in Galilee which, is not in the United States.ETA Jon Stewart Ed show: http://thedailyshow.cc.com/full-episodes/v9pdbk/february-11--2015---colin-firth#time=5m23s&index=0 See, in North America we get that this is Alabama... In the rest of the world, they see this, shake their heads and say: Americans. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kallend 2,175 #29 February 14, 2015 To add to the confusion, the Alabama Supreme Court is going to get in on the act. Or not. www.al.com/news/birmingham/index.ssf/2015/02/alabama_supreme_court_agrees_t.html... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.
