Taking on the belief system of the world's second biggest religion (and the religion of 2.5 million people in the US) is deliberately antagonistic and wrong-headed. If there are specific actions that conflict with our laws/values, they should be discussed on their own merits. Otherwise, that ignoramus in TN should shut his piehole.
From the cited article:
"Ketron said he and House Speaker Pro Tempore Judd Matheny, R-Tullahoma, were given the bill by the Tennessee Eagle Forum.
Eagle Forum state President Bobbie Patray said it was drafted by David Yerushalmi, an Arizona-based attorney who runs the Society of Americans for National Existence, a nonprofit that claims following Shariah is treasonous.
Yerushalmi has written for years in conservative media about what he calls the danger of Shariah and its central role in Islam. He has represented Pamela Geller, who leads the group Stop Islamization of America ..."
So the lawmaker didn't even write the legislative language, but had a group of bigoted zealots do it for him. Pandering scumbag.
