MATT SHEA: the 14th Amendment clearly protects women. It says there's equal protection under the law, and yet under Sharia women are property.

A great and brief explanation of why Islam and sharia are completely incompatible with the US Constitution and American law from Matt Shea, a former US Army officer and combat veteran who served six terms as a Washington State legislator. Matt is also an attorney and a pastor.… pic.twitter.com/xWw6ErJPKq

Definition allowing an ideological system, a field political construct, a complete way of life in to replace our constitution and our way of life, that is, by definition, sedition.  And I want to be, again, very specific on this.  

For example, Article 1, Sections 8 and 10 of the United States Constitution require a free market, and yet Sharia really if I was going to sum it up in one sentence talks about a one-world economy.

Article 4 section IV of the United States Constitution requires a Republican form of government, yet Sharia says it is the only system and the only form of government that can be in existence in a nation.

Article 6 of the United States Constitution says that the Constitution is the supreme law of the land and as I mentioned Sharia says it has to be the supreme law of the land.  So anyone who is Sharia compliant cannot, as a matter of fact, then also take an oath to protect and defend the Constitution because one of those two things is a lie.

The 1st Amendment specifically protects our God-given inalienable right to free speech, to religion, to peaceably assemble, and yet Sharia says that only Islam can be the religion and any other religions must either convert or submit to Islam.  And if they are Jews or Christians or Zoroastrians, they need to pay the jizya or a tax to be under that system, and they must feel the submission of Islam.

The 2nd Amendment.  We take for granted I think especially in places like Texas the right to bear arms and yet under Sharia there is no ability to bear arms for the kaffir or for those who are infidels.

The 4th Amendment no unreasonable search and seizures and yet under Sharia property of kaffirs or infidels can be seized as part of just Warfare or even if there is really little reason can be seized.

The 8th Amendment: no cruel and unusual punishment, and yet under Sharia and specifically the hudood or the criminal code under Sharia people can be crucified or beheaded for causing mischief in the land.  That would be what we know as evangelism as Christians.

The 9th and 10th Amendments very clearly say that our rights come from the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and yet under Sharia, if you read it clearly, rights come from Sharia and it only gives rights to those who have submitted to Sharia.

You have the 13th Amendment which abolishes slavery and the incidences and badges of slavery, and yet under Sharia slave trading is allowed and is actually still practiced to this day in places like Africa.

The 14th Amendment really clearly, and I'm not going to get into Birthright citizenship even though that's a hot issue right now, but the 14th Amendment clearly protects women.  It says there's equal protection under the law, and yet under Sharia women are property.
