Pennsylvania Judge Imposes Sharia Law on American Citizen

When I first read this story, I didn’t believe it. A Pennsylvanian atheist participated in a Halloween parade dressed as a zombie Muhammad. A Muslim watching the spectacle attacked, and beat the reveler. The crime was caught on tape. The perpetrator (Muslim) admitted his guilt but stated that he was an immigrant and was ignorant of the law. He further stated that his religion obligates him to beat anyone who defames their prophet Muhammad. The judge adjudicating the case – also a Muslim – sided with the defendant. Here is what the magistrate said to the atheist, as reported by Opposing Views:

“Having had the benefit of having spent over 2 and a half years in predominantly Muslim countries I think I know a little bit about the faith of Islam. In fact I have a copy of the Koran here and I challenge you sir to show me where it says in the Koran that Mohammad arose and walked among the dead. I think you misinterpreted things. Before you start mocking someone else’s religion you may want to find out a little bit more about it it makes you look like a dufus and Mr. (Defendant) is correct. In many Arabic speaking countries something like this is definitely against the law there. In their society in fact it can be punishable by death and it frequently is in their society.

Judge Martin then offered a lesson in Islam, stating,

“Islam is not just a religion, it’s their culture, their culture. It’s their very essence their very being. They pray five times a day towards Mecca to be a good Muslim, before you die you have to make a pilgrimage to Mecca unless you are otherwise told you can not because you are too ill too elderly, whatever but you must make the attempt. Their greetings wa-laikum as-Salâm (is answered by voice) may god be with you. Whenever, it’s very common when speaking to each other it’s very common for them to say uh this will happen it’s it they are so immersed in it.

Judge Martin furmisunderstanding it ther complicates the issue by not only abrogating the First Amendment, but completely when he said,

“Then what you have done is you have completely trashed their essence, their being. They find it very very very offensive. I’m a Muslim, I find it offensive. But you have that right, but you’re way outside your boundaries or first amendment rights. This is what, and I said I spent about 7 and a half years living in other countries. when we go to other countries it’s not uncommon for people to refer to us as ugly Americans this is why we are referred to as ugly Americans, because we are so concerned about our own rights we don’t care about other people’s rights as long as we get our say but we don’t care about the other people’s say”

But wait, it gets worse. The Judge refused to allow the video into evidence, and then said,

“All that aside I’ve got here basically.. I don’t want to say he said she said but I’ve got two sides of the story that are in conflict with each other.”

And,

“The preponderance of, excuse me, the burden of proof… “

And,

“…he has not proven to me beyond a reasonable doubt that this defendant is guilty of harassment, therefore I am going to dismiss the charge



Holy **** this judge just imposed Sharia Law on an American citizen. We’ve seen this kind of nonsense happen all over Europe, Great Britain, and Canada. Now, it has come to the United States. We cannot allow Judge Martin to abrogate our laws in deference to Sharia. This magistrate has crossed the line and needs to be removed from office.
