    I know of one in Baltimore who brought the topic up as "His Duty".

    That's my point precisely. If we are objecting to proximity to the WTC being off limits to the perpetrators of 9/11, I think there is a case. But we must distinguish between the Al Qaeda goons who did that and all the other rags in the world. How are we going to keep muslim cab drivers out of lower Manhattan?

    I don't think there should be people shouting Allah Akbar within hearing distance of Ground Zero where many victims remain entombed. I don't care if its al qaeda or 7/11 clerks
    doing the shouting.

    That is exactly what terrorists want. They want to rob us of the very liberties that make this country great.

    It's not an issue of liberty. I view it the same as the crazies protesting soldiers' funerals. It's just not right. There are plenty of places in NYC to build a new mosque.

    but allah ackbar means "god is great" or whatever. you agree with this 100% do you not?

    anyways, while you wonder about how you will avoid that point and pretend it isnt relevant, i will point out that we should never shut people up for being annoying. jackassery shouldnt be illegal.

    i think it is ****ing disrespectful that you guys are christians, but i dont lobby to have you shut up.

    to further illustrate this point: after 9/11 when people wondered why this happened, what could motivate people to be so evil, then went to church to pray about it, i wanted to ****ing strangle them. that is the stupidest and most hypocritical thing imaginable. but it isnt up to me to decide to allow people to disrespectful and stupid. people should always be free to be ignorant disrespectful assclowns.

    yeah i don't agree with you much but i do here. There are plenty of places to build a mosque, other than Ground Zero and surrounding area. While they have the right to do so, i don't think it is the right thing to do, it doesn't make the right statement in my opinion, it seems more like a nanny nanny boo boo move to me.

    What i don't understand is why the Towers haven't been rebuilt yet.

    how can the people at this particular mosque prove to you that they are into the non-murdering god? they cant. and neither can you. in fact your holy book is wildly in favor of killing infidels and says so explicitly.
