Bastards! and lawsuits are forbidden in their religion too, what a bunch of hypocrites!

Which is why I hate Islam. They want that they be allowed to use OUR laws against US, and subject everyone else to Sha'ria, but if we try to subject them to our laws, especially if they're ON OUR GROUND, then watch the fur fly.

I am so waiting for the Western backlash.

Me too, I hope it happens soon.

I'm just hoping that when and if the backlash comes, it doesn't wind up going as hard in one diredction as the radical Islamists have gone in theirs.

I'm too angry to write anything coherent.

You know, the older I get, the more my answer to censorship in whatever vehicle it arrives in is I'm going to write whatever the hell I want.

The more I see this sort of thing the more I really want to finish the Navy Book (the one I was working on early last year), which is set about a century in the future after Islam has come to dominate the biggest portion of the opposite hemisphere.
