Maine legislative committee’s rejection of a proposed ban on Islamic sharia law must have the tens of thousands of Somali Muslim refugees, that the Obama Regime has been dumping into cities like Lewiston, Maine, doing a happy dance.
Bangor Daily News A legislative committee voted 8-2 Thursday to reject a bill that attempted to codify the state and U.S. constitutions as the law of the land. The legislation, LD 330, sponsored by state Rep. Michael McClellan, R-Raymond, was modeled after a law passed in Tennessee aimed at preventing the use of Muslim Sharia law in state courts there.
Testimony supporting the bill suggested immigrant Muslim women and their children were sometimes subjected to harsh and illegal treatment by husbands or ex-husbands. As defendants in Maine courts, these men might suggest the laws of their religion or homeland should be applied to their cases, supporters of the legislation suggested.
Maine Attorney General Janet Mills, a Democrat, wrote in a memo to the Judiciary Committee stating that she opposed the measure, as did her Republican predecessor, William Schneider when a similar bill was offered during the 125th Legislature.
Committee members Thursday said that while some may have attempted to inject foreign or religious law into Maine court proceedings, there was no evidence any Maine judge had ever gone along with allowing foreign law to trump rights and protections in the U.S. Constitution.
There already have been many examples of American court decisions in which judges have considered sharia law as a basis for their rulings. shariah-in-american-courts-the-expanding-incursion-of-islamic-law-in-the-u-s-legal-system
The measure looked to address the legal concept of comity, which allows a judge to apply some aspects of laws from other lands if they are generally in line with state and federal laws and do not violate an individual’s constitutional rights, including but not limited to the rights of due process and equal protection.
The bill next moves to the Maine House of Representatives for consideration.
pussies
no happy dance. that is haram
FILTHY TRAITORS.
There must be only one law in America — American law. As Muslims hate and despise American law so intensely, they must return to their home countries where they can live under full barbaric sharia law.
NO SHARIA. NOT NOW. NOT EVER.
The liberals in Augusta may seem to think all of this state think along their lines – they’re sadly mistaken!
It’ll be a cold day in hell when this shit is allowed up in “the County”.
Aroostook County has, for a long time, been considered the “bastard child” of Maine and, at times, has considered ceding from the rest of the state. Jokes have been made that we’re the “un-official” south-eastern province of Canada due to the lack of representation in Augusta (our capitol).
It wasn’t until Gov. LePage took a road trip, up here, that we began to be recognized and the roads, that so desperately needed repair, for decades, got fixed.
I pity the mozlems that try to flaunt their influence up here. Lots of woods and swamps and hungry critters, too.
Some people frequently want to talk about the legacy of slavery. For some reason, this never seems to include the legacy of Arab enslavement of black Africans.

Even in Arabic today, the term used for black people is “abd” which means slave. So if Arabic speaking people were to describe the people in one of these photos, they would be described as photos of “abeed” or slaves.
The legacy of enslavement for these Somalis is Islam and sharia law which was caused by Arabs. Maybe some black leaders could talk about this? I doubt it.
That picture of those losers dressed up in garbage backs would be funny if we didnt know mayhem they were capable of. Get a load of the one uber Muzzified (in the middle) with just her eye slit ninja outfit on…LOL.
Cripes, it’s like the horror movie ‘invasion of the Body Snatchers’ Muslim style or a Muslim Zombie Walking Dead.
Sucking the life and joy out of the areas they conquer AND infect, spreading death, decay and destruction.
All you younger Liberals and hipsters……keep your bleeding hearts and open door immigration policies. YOU will regret the day you let these vermin destroy your communities……guaranteed.
IF at all possible, ANY clear thinking person that lives around these areas should move ASAP.
Before your property values plummet,…..before these criminals start expanding their crime sprees into your neighborhood……before your kids have to go to school AND their educational needs are IGNORED and YOUR kids are treated as 2nd class citizens over these third worlders …….
Crime, Rot and decay are sure to follow. Man……it’s going to very ugly….very soon.
Another one bites the dust. What’s left of America that so many died for? Every subversive is biting the hand that feeds it. How stupid is that!
And we all know what “happy” Muslims do.
Seriously, though, Maine?!
This is a disaster. The main issue is that Muslims need to be sent a clear message that they won’t be able to get away with violating laws, or with lesser punishment for doing so, using the “but it’s legal in sharia law” defense. That defense needs to be explicitly invalidated in the law so that judges have no room to even consider it at all, not for determination of guilt or for determination of mitigating circumstances.
If CAIR were not a jihadi organization then they’d have no problem with this.
IDIOTIC LEFT-WING LIBERALS and NAZIS / COMMUNISTS!!
The evil sharia law is UNCONSTITUTIONAL in our Judeo-Christian Nation USA!!
I’m not surprised by this.
I’m originally from the East Coast, and I can remember Lewiston, Maine as one of those Postcard New England towns years ago. However, the town’s rabid leftist, Islamic Dhimmi’s/enablers have turned this town into a “little Mogadishu”. My girlfriend and I drove through there not long ago on one of our cross-country road trips; we hadn’t seen the place in years, and had the experience of watching one of these “refugee’s” (a male) lift their elaborately colored native gown, squat down and proceed to shit in the street right in front of us like a stray dog. I’M NOT EXAGGERATING THIS! If I remember correctly, the town fathers’ response to these bahaviors, was to import twice as many of these Stone Age Savages. NEVER AGAIN will we patronize ANY town that forces their residents to accept these savages as refugees.
What a vile, filthy disgusting pig. Filth doesn’t belong in any Western country.
Our clean, beautiful, civilised First World Western countries are being transformed into the dirty, uncivilised Muslim Third World.
