seems like Mrs Hamid is not only against freedom of speech for Americans, but she's also quite keen on shariah law.

(RNS) North Carolina Muslims hope they can persuade Gov. Pat McCrory, a Republican, to veto a bill that prohibits state judges from considering “foreign law.”
“It’s going to be tough,” said Rose Hamid of Charlotte. “But I do believe there is a chance.”
Muslims across the state oppose the bill they think is motivated by intolerance and may potentially infringe on other religious groups. Bills against judicial consideration of “foreign laws” are believed to really be opposing Shariah, or Islamic law.

Those in support of the bill argue that its purpose is to protect the constitutional rights of citizens, especially women and minorities, but those opposing the bill
argue that it is meant to target Sharia law and creates a sense of Islamophobia, or prejudice towards members of Islam, in the state.
The bill contains no specific language referencing Sharia law, but those opposed to it argue that its similarity in text to other state bills proves it is meant to prevent Sharia law interpretation. Additionally, one Republican member of the state Senate supporting the bill announced during legislative session in July that the bill's purpose was to prevent Sharia law interpretation.
