Unlegislaturized Sharia laws in the West

Some form of Sharia laws are already in place not only in the Europe but also in the US.

Here is my point.

Major media outlets did not republish Mohammad's caricature in large numbers. Their decision not to republish was not due to the respect for Islam but for fear of reprisal. One way or the other, the bottom line result is that Muslims made the West follow their Sharia laws that prohibits caricature of Mohammad. Western media and governments chickened out. This is another venue CAIR and like organization take to impose sharia laws. In this method one doesn't have to have sharia law passed by the congress but it is unwritten, unlegislaturized Sharia law that is practiced in reality – as "Not publishing caricature of Mohammad"

People like me who left the barbarism of Islam for the West to enjoy the freedom of expression are back to square one.
