No Sharia Law in America.

Washington (CNN) — Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich on Thursday called for the U.S. to test every person with a Muslim background to see if they believe in Sharia law, and deport those who do.

"Let me be as blunt and direct as I can be. Western civilization is in a war. We should frankly test every person here who is of a Muslim background, and if they believe in Sharia, they should be deported," Gingrich said in an interview with Fox News' Sean Hannity. "Sharia is incompatible with Western civilization. Modern Muslims who have given up Sharia, glad to have them as citizens. Perfectly happy to have them next door."

"How do we ascertain -- how do you possibly ascertain whether or not that person really wants assimilation, really wants a new life, or whether or not they want to expand that caliphate, which is what we're at war against?" Hannity asked Thursday.

"The first step is you have to ask them the questions," Gingrich responded. "The second step is you have to monitor what they're doing on the Internet. The third step is, let me be very clear, you have to monitor the mosques. I mean, if you're not prepared to monitor the mosques, this whole thing is a joke. Where do you think the primary source of recruitment is? Where do you think the primary place of indoctrination is? You've got to look at the madrassas -- if you're a school which is teaching Sharia, you want to expel it from the country."

The comments by Gingrich -- who was a finalist to be Donald Trump's running mate before the real estate mogul tapped Indiana Gov. Mike Pence on Thursday -- are similar to ones made by Trump himself last fall, when he called for surveillance of "certain mosques" to counter terrorist threats.

Gingrich also said Thursday that calling Islam a "religion of peace" is "bologna."

"It's not that Islamists are necessarily evil, but they're not necessarily a religion of peace," Gingrich said.

That has to be one of the stupidest ideas I've seen put forth this election cycle, and that's certainly saying a lot.

Years ago I did put a couple of things from a particularly wild stallion in a jar for a while. When he settled down a couple of months later, I showed them to him as a reminder. That's where Hillary got the idea, I think.
 
I've got another idea: we deport all fascists who hate due process and the first amendment.

most french do not share your paranoia about a problem that doesnt exist in either France or the US. Just so you know french law doesnt apply in the US so your comment is irrelevant.

Does Gingrich care where Muslims are deported to? No? Then why should I? Deport the new fascists to Antarctica for all I care.

It always bring warmth to my heart to see Politicians who are believing in less Government and even less intrusive federal government, to target minority of a specific belief and religion, then advocate for federal mind and belief police to test and target those specific minorities and judge and prosecute what they think and not they do! Even Though they have not violated any laws.

It is always good to see Conservative agenda hard at work!

Gotta hand it to Gingrich with few words he shat all over 4 or 5 articles of the US constitution. A true Conservative American responding at the first sign some brown person say BOOO!

Even the very conservative and religious Mike Pence thinks Newt is talking out of his ass. I tend to agree. Thought police? House Un-American Committee? Sounds wonderful. Newt Gingrich, the new Joe McCarthy.
 
I don't agree with Gingrich but something needs to be done.

As catchy as this sounds, what is incompatible with America is barring people based on their "beliefs." One can believe in sharia law and not be a terrorist.

American laws are normally based on actions, not beliefs.

Do we jail people who believe that drugs should be legalized, since that must mean they do and sell illegal drugs?

That's just silly. And thinking the people would answer the questionnaire honestly is positively stupid. How did that guy get elected?

Eh. So Newt hates the 1 Amendment.

This is news?

I don't see any First Amendment problem with his suggestions. The Free Exercise Clause protects religious beliefs, but it may not protect some acts/I] a religion calls for. Shari'ah is a comprehensive set of rules by which observant Muslims are to conduct themselves. Much of the conduct it prescribes is not compatible with our system of government, or with our individual liberties.
 
Banning Sharia law isnt really any different than banning the ten commandments, in principle. We have laws that every citizen is bound by, if their beliefs go against those laws they should be held accountable for breaking the law. N matter what religion you practice or if you practice none; dont break the ****ing laws.

What do you assume it's about?

As far as being a terrorist when you come here (or are born here) we've seen many instances of radicalization occurring down the road.
