By perpetuating the idea of hate towards those that practice Islam, we as a nation are eroding that which we stand for, and are perpetuating the same kind of blanket hatred that allowed Hitler to rise to power.
I think you assume an awful lot here. There are a small amount of people (people don't come in amounts, genius. They come in numbers - HK) that may hate those that practice Islam, but that is not the reason most oppose the building of the Mosque. As someone that does oppose the Mosque I resent your accusations. No one is disputing their right to put the Mosque there. But just because you have the right to do something, does not mean that it is the right thing to do.
Who says it isn't the right thing to do? Glen Beck? I say it IS the right thing to do.
"However, what is perhaps most insulting is the idea that a Beck’s Badge of Merit will somehow mean more than a “progressive” Purple Heart because it rewards “honor and integrity.” For many, the mere fact that someone is willing to sacrifice their life and limb for country, and is in fact wounded, symbolizes their “honor and integrity.”
Like all of us who didn’t serve in the military, Glenn Beck should show a little respect for the service, especially those who have been wounded in the line of duty. He seems to think he’s attacking liberals in general and FDR specifically when he derides the Purple Heart by denigrating it as a reward for being a victim. That is really despicable — especially so in Beck’s case, because, instead of serving his country, Beck spent his teen and young-adult years laid up smoking pot and doing coke."

That pigfucking hypocrite's opinion means more than mine? I don't think so. While I don't have a Purple Heart, I DO have a DD214, which is a whole lot more than that traitor has. My opinion means more. Period. Fuck that fat shit-swiller.

Americans have been lectured on tolerance during this debate, but tolerance is a two way street. The builders of this Mosque must be tolerant of Americans and their feelings too. Not all Muslims are violent, but like it or not, the atrocity that was committed on 911 was done in the name of Islam. No, it was done in the name of getting Americans the fuck out of Saudi Arabia, and to stop meddling in the ME by overthrowing the govt of Iran (for instance) and installing Pahlavi, a CIA sycophant, among other crimes. quote:
Therefore, many do not think it appropriate to build a Mosque that overlooks that site. Gov. Patterson has offered to find them land elsewhere; it is very telling that they have not jumped at that opportunity. They say that are trying to build bridges, but if the people you are trying to build bridges to are becoming upset by your actions, wouldn’t you back off and try to work with them? The fact they are not doing so is very interesting. It tells me they may not be so much about building bridges, and that they are not really interested in a Mosque so much as a Mosque located across from GZ. In the end it is less important what I think, or you think about it, what is important is what our enemy thinks about it. The jihadist websites are gleeful about this Mosque. They see it as a victory arch built right over the ashes of our dead. They see it as a great recruiting tool and already talk about how one day future jihadist can visit it to get inspiration before launching future attacks against us. You'd have more credibility if you would stop repeating xenophobic rightard lies. The COMMUNITY CENTER and PRAYER CENTER are NOT across from so-called "ground zero". I personally don't give a flying fuck what some moronic toothless Gomer from Assrim VA thinks is right. I care about the Constitution (you know, that "piece of paper" that the Busheviks wipe(d) their asses with, thereby spitting in the faces of every American who gave their lives defending the Constitution? That piece of paper that soldiers and Congresspeople pledge to defend? You've heard of it, right?) quote:
Last I would say to leftists, that it is possible to disagree with someone without impugning their motives. I don’t hate Muslims and I am not evil, you do not have to accuse me of such because I have real legitimate concerns about this Mosque. If the people who were building this had some compassion for the Americans against this and truly wanted outreach they would move the location of this Mosque, but that’s not going to happen is it?
No, we Progressives know what their motives are.
