Saddam Salim’s bill is clear enough, but if it passes and becomes Virginia law, how long will it be before someone is arrested and prosecuted for “Islamophobia” not because he assaulted a Muslim, but because he spoke about jihad violence as being intrinsic to Islam rather than as a hijacking of the religion of peace? I don’t believe it will be very long at all. With efforts to establish Sharia enclaves becoming ever more common in the U.S., and jihad violence continuing, Salim’s bill could all too easily be used to shut down all discussion of what to do about the problem of jihad and Sharia. Such a discussion, you see, would constitute “prejudice” and “hate.”
