Let me repeat my question:

"Can you provide my exact quote as to where I mentioned that "Sharia Law- sponsored infanticide is coming to Canada?"

I said Sharia Law has no place in Canadian society. There is a big difference in statements, in case you cannot comprehend that. Additionally, do you always throw around labels like "Xenophobia" so loosely?

Honour killings aren't even part of any Sharia Law systems in foreign nations.

I'm still not sure what you were attempting to get at.
You'll note that HPLovecraft has explained the point exactly. Your comment was not rationally connected to the matter being discussed. Therefore, we are left to conclude that it was motivated by something irrational. Considering the facts of this case, the only reasonable conclusion is that your comments were motivated by an irrational fear of Afghan or Muslim culture. This is the definition of xenophobia.

Unless you have some other explanation?

[Just to be clear, I'm certainly not suggesting that you're racist or a bad person.]
