Lol, the better question would be if what he was doing was in line with sharia, which it is. But for your sake not every 'Muslim' believes in Sharia, just the vast majority. Just ask yourself if you would be defending this guy if he was a Conservative Christian doing the same thing. I think you know you wouldn't. I have no idea what the fascination with defending Islam is.

 

I will admit I don't know the solution for Muslims and their beliefs, but we need something. Having 'only' 1 in 4 or 1 in 5 believing that violence is okay against nonbelievers isn't acceptable http://www.pewglobal.org/2014/07/01/conc...ddle-east/.

But to go down the road of banning a religion is not tolerable either. Its a slippery slop to totalitarianism. The funny thing is it looks like its set up to go that way no matter which path you pick. You let too many muslims in, they vote in sharia to try and make the Caliphate. You ban them completely, and you just allowed someone to ban people based on their religion, and how long before they ban you for your religion (or even lack of religion!)? Its a trap if I ever saw one.
