A agree, but there's a tendency among some these days to tout the boogeyman of sharia law. And there's an implication that there's something alien about Libya, that being restrictive of sexual matter is somehow unique to sharia law, that without sharia law Libya would be just like the US, and that Christians wouldn't do anything similar. Which is just nonsense. Conservatives are conservative. Libya did this thing, and John Ashcroft covered up a statue's tit. Bringing sharia into it is just buying into the latest thing pants-wetting wingnuts are using to scare themselves.
