really, shouldn't they be worried about REAL shite?

you know stuff like homelessness, good education, affordable housing, jobs, health care, and on and on

nope, they're worried about something that simply isn't a threat in tennessee. SHARIAH LAW



Tennessee GOP proposes law to jail anyone who follows Shariah law

 

Washing your feet? Jail!  Do not steal? Jail!  Praying?  Jail!  Helping the poor?  Jail! (Well, at least that last one is consistent with GOP doctrine.) The Republicans are having a national competition to see who can be the most ridiculous and offensive.

A proposed Tennessee law would make following the Islamic code known as Shariah law a felony, punishable by 15 years in jail.

State Sen. Bill Ketron, R-Murfreesboro, and state Rep. Judd Matheny, R-Tullahoma, introduced the same bill in the Senate and House last week. It calls Shariah law a danger to homeland security and gives the attorney general authority to investigate complaints and decide who's practicing it.....................

They're probably afraid that any tolerance of Shariah Law would de-Christianize their right to stone people.

Whenever we feel embarrassed here in Georgia, we just look to Tennessee to make us look better by comparison.
