Do you agree......???
JACQUI Lambie wants those in Australia who support sharia law to “pack up their bags and get out of here”.
The Palmer United Party Senator is also calling for them to be kicked off government benefits and not be allowed to vote in this country.
The outspoken Tasmanian, whose recent comments about the threat of a Chinese communist invasion caused a stir, this morning turned her sights on sharia law supporters.
“Anybody that supports Sharia law in Australia should not have the right to vote, should not be given government handouts and should probably pack up their bags and get out of here,” she told reporters in Hobart.
“Anybody supporting or calling for sharia law in Australia can get out. Simple as that.”
Earlier on radio 3AW Senator Lambie praised the Coalition for raising the country’s terror alert level to high — a move she said should have probably happened months ago.
But she warned she was more worried about veterans being “pushed back into the war zone” without adequate help when they returned, while “supporters of sharia law are allowed access to government benefits”.
“We are giving government benefits to those under sharia law … and I simply believe that those supporters who support sharia law should not have the right to vote with their allegiance to a foreign power.”
Senator Lambie said sharia law was “an underlying problem” in Australia.
“Unless we put our foot down on it now it’s only going to become bigger and more dangerous well into the future.”
The former veteran has previously called for a Royal Commission into the Defence Force and the Department of Veterans Affairs.

Does she mean those who would like to see Australia governed by sharia Law or does she mean those who apply Sharia Law to aspects of their private lives in the same way that some Catholics are expected to obey the laws of their Church with regard to abortion, contraception, fasting on certain days in Lent, going to Mass on Sundays, not being abe to remarry in a Catholic church if they have been divorced etc.
when was the last time a catholic received
a flogging by a bishop for not observing these
'laws' ??
what a strange comparison
When was the last time a Muslim in Australia received a flogging from a Mufti for not observing Sharia Law?

In Australia? 1958.
If you're referencing the UNAUTHORIZED, criminal flogging of Martinez in 2013, it was condemned by local Muslim authorities.
So the strange comparison is yours.

ok so i'm not familiar with the catholic hierarchy -
instead of bishop - make that a spiritual leader/advisor - etc
use the same equivalent to answer
your question.
i think you will find its the consequences of breaking
religious laws is the main issue here. why else would
it be an issue ? but then, when it comes to lambie -
who really knows. 
Did someone mention The daily Telegraph?
I believe this was their front page today.
Charming eh??
