Sharia law seems to be pretty much incompatible with US law, though I could be confused.
You are confused. All religions have some kind of internal legal system. Sharia Islam is actually not much different than Orthodox Judaism or some sects of conservative Christianity.

Don't you worry, dhimmi. Jackoff Trudeau will bring the middle east to you.
Reacting to fear has a funny way of making your fears come true. Case in point: Newt's proposal here to undermine the 1st amendment is the surest way to bring about religious rule.

I wasn't aware that Christians had any sort of enforced law, nor Jews now that I think about it.
Isn't Sharia law the one where they kill gays and women that allow themselves to be raped?
I'll be the first to admit that I'm woefully ignorant about the Muslim religion, as many of the outward manifestations of that faith I find very off putting.

Without being insulting, yes you are.

It's up to you if you actually want to find out about the subject, but why post about it when you could just educate yourself about it?

How are you going to conclusively prove somebody is actually Muslim or not?

I would think Muslims would not lie about being a Muslims. That would be punishable by death according to Sharia law.

Many parts of Shari law deeply conflict with our countries laws and morals (not talking about religious ones) The extreme violent parts of Sharia law have no business in this county. I personally dont have a problem denying followers of Shiria law.

Your personal problems with Sharia Law are irrelevant.

Israel, for example, recognizes Sharia law.

As are you personal problems of my opinions on Sharia law are irrelevant as well.

And I guess you are ok with the way sharia treats women and its civil laws like cutting of hands stoning ect.

To be perfectly honest, I don't care all that much. I guess my question becomes, does Sharia law call for the killing of gays? Does it call for women who are raped to be punished? Does it allow the beating of one's wife?

Israel, for example, recognizes Sharia law.

The 1925 Federal Arbitration Act allows Muslims, Christians, Jews, etc. to use religious tribunals to arbitrate disagreements and "the judgements that result are given force of law by state and federal courts". The statute "preempts inconsistent state legislation", such as laws to ban Sharia.[18] For Jews, the Beth Din (Rabbinical court) of America "does not merely decide the legal rights of devout Jews; it formally forbids believers to pursue complaints through the secular judicial system without prior authority from a rabbi. And Muslims can also have their inheritance, business, and matrimonial disputes sorted out by Islamic scholars, who attempt to decide them according to the sharia."[18] While the US Congress could in theory repeal the act, it could not ban arbitration by Muslims while leaving other religious conciliators free to continue their work. "Any reform would have to impact equally on all faith communities, and it is not only Muslims who would object if federal legislators presumed to do that.

To be perfectly honest, I don't care all that much. I guess my question becomes, does Sharia law call for the killing of gays? Does it call for women who are raped to be punished? Does it allow the beating of one's wife?

Why are you so annoyed by facts that you immediately attack the messenger.

I don't care one way or another about your opinions, hotshot.

Sharia Law exists in Israel of all places. Just because you're a'scared of Mooselmans doesn't change the fact that Sharia Law is just one more talking point you've been trained to shit your pants about, without even knowing what it is.

Also, protip: just pointing at one example of something doesn't make it apply to everything else. The Sharia Law you've been trained to shit yourself over in Afghanistan isn't the default version of Sharia Law, just like some Mooselman who says scary words before killing a bunch of people and himself doesn't represent all of the Mooselmans.

To me, this is quite simple: if someone practices aspects of Sharia law that are against American law, then... well, they've committed crimes. However, simply expressing support for that law? No. That's McCarthyism at its worst.

Supporting Sharia law doesn't mean you want to conduct terrorist attacks. You may not be a very tolerant person, but you're not doing anything illegal by voicing your opinion. Look at it this way: if the US kicked people out of the country for believing in ideologies that only kinda sorta might lead to extremism, then it'd have to make anti-abortion and anti-LGBT speech illegal. As hateful as those views are, that kind of censorship just isn't right.

I am not scared of Muslims just religious zealots that try and impose their beliefs on others, that would include Christians. So ban them as well

You could, quite frankly, phrase this as changing or tightening our screening for Islamic terrorism. But obviously US citizens cannot be deported.
Extremists who are not citizens, should damn well be deported, no?
