A proposed amendment to the Wyoming constitution would prohibit judges from considering Islamic law or international law when ruling.

Of course Wyoming will prohibit Shariah Law ...... this is a democratic Christain Nation and always will be. I feel if Muslims live in the United States they should be required to permit Christianity Law to rule before Shariah Law .... please have some respect this is our Land the land that Moses and our fore fathers have blessed us with. I'm a spirit filled gentile man of God declaring to all Muslims repent and give your lives to the Lord.
