A glimpse into the future of the West. This is where the Left’s “hate speech” rhetoric is tending. We are very close to this now, far closer than most people realize.

Nigeria: Government outraged as bishop criticizes its response to jihad terror
Note how the failed Nigerian leadership takes aim at the Catholic Bishop of Sokoto on the grounds that the Bishop Matthew Hassan Kukah did not speak like a man of God when Kukah criticized Nigeria’s approach to escalating Islamic terrorism in the country.

Nigeria: Catholic bishop accuses government of spending billions to rehabilitate jihadis while their victims suffer
The Nigerian government supposedly rehabilitates and then frees the jihadis.

The sharia advocates stonings, beheadings, the inferiority of women, the murder of gays, apostates, opposition to free speech, supremacy of Muslim believers over unbelievers etc. How could possibly anyone think that such abuse and strictures could bring peace?
