Marco Rubio Slams Obama's Speech On Fighting Islamophobia

I don't see anything wrong there. Sharia law isn't unconstitutional.

Well, it's not allowed in 7 states, with more to follow I think.

It is an optional set of laws that Muslims can choose to follow, but if they do they also have to follow US laws first. Sharia law is an application of freedom of religion.

Here is an example,

Breitbart Texas asked what happens when there is a conflict between Sharia law and Texas law. El-badawi said most of the time, the laws are in agreement. When pushed further he admitted that, “we follow Sharia law.” However, he explained, “If the parties are not satisfied with the tribunal’s decision, they do not have to accept it and they can take the matter to Texas civil courts.” He did not say what the social ramifications of rejecting the “judge’s” decision would be.

They will follow Sharia law first.

He did not say what the social ramifications of rejecting the “judge’s” decision would be.

Exactly.

This will only create more separation between muslims and Western society and isolation for muslim women for instance.

He also said there is a difference between how a man and a woman can request a divorce under their system. “The husband can request the divorce directly from the tribunal,” El-badawi stated. “The wife must go to an Imam who will request the divorce for her.” He called it “two paths to the same result.”

Yes with one path full of obstructions.
