Nope, no Sharia Law here please!

Nine months ago the Assembly of Muslin Jurists of America issued a fatwa declaring that, according to Islamic law, rape cannot exist in a marriage because a women is required to consent to her husband. (Herald Sun, Australia). This reasoning, which is on par with ducking-stool witch finding in medieval times, prompted some throw-back New Jersey judge to deny the issuing a restraining order against an Muslim man who was sexually abusing his wife.
Now... the West has more of it's fair share of  knuckle dragging or suited city gent domestic abuse candidates; but as far as I'm aware even they would not presume the protection of a law from the Dark Ages. If Muslims who advocate Sharia law want to live in such an environment, well there's plenty of airlines going daily to the various ports of paradise.
