If you are still paying interest than Sharia Law hasn't taken over America. #justsaying

You'll know when you're living under Sharia Law if suddenly all your loans & credit cards become interest free. Sound nice, doesn't it?

She was one of the speakers at the Women’s March. The Left loves her.
I wonder what this person thinks about petro-dollars that are put into Western banks.
But my credit cards wouldn’t be my credit cards, would they? they would be my husband’s or my father’s or brother’s. And I’d have to ask for their permission to use the card, and ask a male relative to drive me to the mall I guess too.
The promotion of this woman by the left is another losing strategy, which I’m perfectly happy to allow to fester.
15 years ago, did anyone predict the convergence of the Islamists and the Left?
If she does not understand the difference between “then” and “than” it is no wonder she likes sharia law. She has no discernment.
If someone lending me money receives nothing for the use of that money, no one would lend money. Adios credit card, home loans, auto loans, and education loans. (Although the last might make it worth it . . .) If she cannot figure that out, she has weak reasoning skills.
No discernment and weak reasoning skills? Why listen to someone like that?

Just another repellant lifestyle the left has been given money to sell to us and make normal.
So far, we have promiscuity, pedophlia, drug addiction, living off other peoples money, non Caucasian misogyny , guilt by gender without due process, and now sharia law.
The progressives are like a really unscrupulous PR firm who will take money from anyone,
I wonder if the weak-minded feel seduced by her remarks. If you don’t know any better, then having all your interest discharged might sound appealing. She is on a mission, that’s for sure.
It makes sense to me that Islamists have sided with the Left. The basic impulse of the Left is to tear down, to destroy. That’s just what the Islamists need, and it is their impulse as well to a certain extent. What I mean is that they destroy competing cultures so that they can build their own on top of them.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend. No other explanation for this alignment.
The left admires power and sells out for money.
The right wants to be left alone and make money.
So you guys are saying that those tweets were not tongue-in-cheek? It’s hard to believe this woman is that stupid.
You know it’s getting bad when you can’t tell the satire from the straight stuff.

I used to argue with leftists for fun.
They really think like this, with all the depth of a two-dimensional plain, like from the math that they never took in college because they knew it required something more than agonizing about their feelz.
Idiots, or worse.
That should have been “mathematical plane,” I think.
Meh.
I say we send her to northern Iraq for a year and then she can report back about it.
The Left hate Christianity so much that they are willing to embrace Islam.
They think that, once they are in charge and all things become better, that then the Muslims will become nicer also. But, even if they get slaughtered by the Muslims, that is preferable to allowing the conservatives who are the spiritual heirs of Western Civilization to continue. They will be like the guys from N.I.C.E. in That Hideous Strength. After they have put us on the guillotine, they will celebrate their victory by putting each other on the guillotine.
I’ve watched a couple of episodes of PBS’s “Africa’s Great Civilizations.” Once upon a time Muslims and Christians got along.
Muslims and Christians got along because Muslims were demoralized by Ottoman corruption and they feared the military might of the European colonial powers.
And, because famine and disease kept populations relatively low, so less opportunities for frictions.
this was before the Ottoman empire and was on Africa
I would contend that muslims and everyone else they ran into have not gotten along anywhere. Periods of non-open warfare are not the same as “getting along”. Remember, conquered peoples were dhimmini.
Ms. MLH, do you recall the location where they said Muslims and Christians got along?
That has happened in a few places over time; typically for no longer than 50 – 60 years. There were two periods in southern Spain that both lasted for less than 70 years, separated by a century of strife, sandwiched by centuries of war before and after, and that is what is generally called a “golden age” of tolerant Muslim Spain.
Northeast part and, I think, Ethiopia –except. . . hmmph. Other than being hosted by the beer summit guy, it’s an interesting show.
Christians in Ethiopia took in Muslim refugees during Muhammad’s lifetime when they were being killed by Pagans. If that is what they are talking about, yes, Christians and Muslims got along, right up until Muslims had the numbers to go to war against the Christians.
Otherwise, “getting along” seems to only mean that one side or the other had achieved superiority and was able to enforce a peace on their terms. (Christian terms were more humane than Muslim terms.)
In our own lifetimes, in the 1990s, Christians and Muslims got along in Ethiopia. That is because the Communists had made both religions illegal, and the outlaws helped each other evade the Communists.
*. Thanks. Did I mention that I often nod off when watching TV?
