WATCH: Maxine Waters says opposition to Sharia Law is “anti-Muslim bigotry.”

With politicians like these, who needs enemies? So often in the West we find people of power and influence claiming to represent the peoples’ best interest, but in actual fact, they’re doing the exact opposite.

The following footage was taken February 19, 2012 during a public townhall meeting at the Islamic Society of Orange County in California.

Congresswoman Maxine Waters offered a speech, criticizing opposition to the implementation of Sharia Law calling it anti-Muslim bigotry.

“It was important to recognize what’s really going on, on these anti-Sharia laws,” Waters said. “They’re motivated by anti-Muslim bigotry, plain and simple.”

“Sharia equals Islam and Muslims and a vote against one is a vote against another,” she added.

Well, at least she’s honest…
