> As a Muslim American

Well this is kinda contradicting. Are you Tunisian or American?

If I were american ( I'm not ) I would probably either fight against a law in a democratic way ( elections, groups, protests, etc. ) or obey it.

Leaving a country, because you don't agree with a law is not a significant reason for me.

I'm a citizen of both countries.

Obviously, that's what democracy is for. But if the laws are passed and the damage is done, I would choose to leave; in a sense, that is my form of protesting. I refuse to contribute to a society that has decided - by rule of law - that I'm not welcome because of my beliefs.

Tunisia allows Dual citizenship, afaik.
