I'm not addressing this at you, but they have the LEGAL right to build this wherever they want. It's more hypocrosy from the right when they clutch the Constitution when it involves their precious guns but want to ignore it when they don't happen to agree.
Much the same as ElPrezBo embraces the constitution when it suits his needs - albeit infrequently?

It shouldn't be a right vs. left issue. It should be a right vs. wrong issue, and it's just flat out WRONG to build that building where they want to put it. And, is it really just a mosque? It's supposed to be a cultural center with lots of other things going on - even a swimming pool. How does religious freedom play into that?

The vast majority of Muslims live in Bay Ridge Brooklyn. I would think a cultural center in that location would be of more benefit.

I doubt the Muslims in charge of this project could give two hoots in hell over the sensitivity of Americans.
