Not Rape Rape?
Jul 24, 2010
Andy McCarthy blogs about a case in New Jersey:
A Muslim woman was raped by her Muslim husband (who was about to divorce her). However, a state judge refused to find that there had been a sexual assault or any kind of criminal sexual misconduct because, under sharia principles, a wife may not refuse her husband's requests for sex. As the man told the crying woman, "This is according to our religion. You are my wife, I c[an] do anything to you. The woman, she should submit and do anything I ask her to do."
Who needs Jihad when you have the American judiciary doing the job for free!
Fortunately, this mental malaise hasn't consumed the entire US legal system; an appellate court has reversed this utterly dumb ruling.
