Sharia Law comes to Texas

[Zebo]

This is time for an acid job or stiletto prefaced with seduction. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta when system breaks down to that extent. Where is her daddy? That ficker would not have played another game ever had that been some of our girls, right? At least I hope so.

I'm trying to figure out what Islam has to do with this. In Islam you need 4 male witnesses to rape to get a conviction. They had the witnesses. This is our system failing.

A rape kit was assembled in October 2008 and DNA evidence collected, H.S. said, but she and her family were told that a backlog of cases meant it would be more than a year before processing got started.

LOL fail.

Sounds more like a tight knit community caring a lot more about their star athlete than about the rights of the girl.

Sharia law not found, OP Fail!

I wasn't referring to the guy's first name. I assumed he wasn't Muslim at all, because it's pretty common for black people to name their kids Muslim names without being Muslim. "Sharia Law" refers to the rape victim being blamed and punished for being raped, and the rapists getting away with it.

Where was she blamed for it?

From the way the two linked stories read, she went to the school with a complaint after being raped by the three guys, the school responded with what was within their ability; try to avoid them until they can be forced out of school once there is sufficient justification.

I know this might seem like I'm making this up, but sometimes girls lie about being raped so the school really couldn't do anything to the boy(s) until there was a police investigation that proved that there was ample evidence.

As for the cheerleading, the school was justified there also. Here's another shocker, cheerleaders will sometime date the players of the sport that they are cheering for. What if the school allowed cheerleaders to pick and choose whether they were wanting to cheer for specific players or not? What if one of these cheerleader/player dating scenarios isn't going particularly well and the cheerleader is complaining to her fellow cheerleaders and they all just decide that a certain player won't be cheered for unless he apologizes to little Suzie for not calling her back after she texted him asking him to cause she wanted to tell him the big news of being named captain of the squad or some other petty thing?

The school didn't implement Sharia law in any way, shape or form nor did the girl get blamed for what happened to her in any way, shape or form.

I don't understand the motive behind trying to hijack the thread by playing the race card. How about sticking to the topic instead of trolling?

This is hilarious coming from you. That's got to be one of the most trollish thread titles ever.

Would the "white Christians" have been brought to proper justice? If so, I guess I would have to agree, the poor girl at least deserves justice.

I have a feeling that his religion wasn't really the issue though, it was likely the "star athlete" part.

Welcome to the modern caste' system numb nuts! Something Hindus and monotheists have in common- intolerance!
Tell me any institutionalized religion that respects women folk 100%- well apart from the newly accept druids in BG(Great Briton for you puritanical Americans) but they are often referred to as heretics or satanists- wonder who writes there dictionaries!
Salam malakum! "christians?"
God help mudjimajad!

A sad but accurate summary of events. This is Texas, after all, where football, and to a lesser extent basketball, are the true state religions. Read the book "Friday Night Lights" sometime to understand the culture down there. The movie didn't go into the half of it.

So I assume the next there is a case of sexual abuse of a minor where the abusers get away with it the title would be

"Catholic Law comes to ...."

Worst excuse for a thread ever.

This isn't about religion. It's about a star basketball player being let off of charges so that he can carry the team and improve the school's name. I don't know if it's worse this way or if he were let off for being muslim (which we can't confirm), but it's pretty bad either way.

Obviously Islam has nothing to do with this case. The OP's point, obviously, is that this case has the same result, the same treatment of the victim (assuming she is being truthful, which since on of the boys copped a plea seems reasonable), that gets those of us on the right so up in arms about Sharia creeping in. It's good for all of us to remember that Sharia is by far not the only cause of evil and injustice in our legal system.

This certainly sounds like a horrendous case. There should be a federal investigation into this case and abuse of her civil rights, just as when southern juries refuse to indict and convict white men charged with assaulting black men or women in spite of overwhelming evidence of guilt. Allowing people to get away with rape or other forms of assault just because they are athletes is just as bad as doing so because of skin color or ethnicity.

Or something pretty damn close. This cheerleader was locked in a room and raped by 3 male students. Instead of expelling them, the school told the girl to keep a low profile and stay out of the cafeteria because other students were taunting her, and not take part in homecoming... Then kicked her off the cheerleading squad for refusing to cheer for one of them.

I guess she's lucky they didn't stone her.

I don't see you supporting the students who attacked the girl, so they must not have used Sharia Law.

Are you guys just playing dumb or you do really not see my point? What happened in this case is similar to what would happen under sharia law, and it's ironic because sharia law is not involved in any way. :\

I got it, and it's a valid point worth mentioning.

Google maps doesn't show a mosque in that town, but it's possible that they're keeping it off search engines in an effort to remain covert....

lol, so much confusion caused by this thread.
