Obama's support for Ground Zero Mosque

I think its bull that 3000 people died on one day because "true believers" listened to a madman and committed a horrendous crime!...and continue to do various acts against innocents because of their twisted views.

i agree. what that has to do with building a mosque i don't know.

also, islam is perhaps 1% of our entire population, i don't see them 'taking over' any time soon. our very freedom of religion that many are currently trying to ignore in this situation will prevent any 'taking over' by this religion in future.
it's funny...you see criminal acts perpetrated by christians, yet no one ever goes nuts about a church being built nearby...when a christian kills people, it's a crime, a rampage, a shooting spree. crosses are erected in memory, no problem. when three thousand people are killed in a criminal act in new york city, it's a religious war. when the fed building got blown up in oklahoma, it had no religious connotations at all. the perpetrators weren't different, so they weren't 'them'. now, it's 'them' vs 'us'. it's ok for george bush to say god told him to attack, but we sure have a problem with anyone saying a thing about allah.

as for those who say there was no condemnation by muslims about 9/11 or terrorism, i did a search-not that i think you'll go to this link and check out all the cited sources.

Better tell Riot's President that LMAO

It is important to note that “if you actually took the number of Muslim Americans, we’d be one of the largest Muslim countries in the world”.

So says President Barack Obama.

The number of people who adhere to Islam in this country is as easy to accurately estimate as the number who adhere to Buddhism, Christianity, and Judaism.

if you go by population perhaps. but that isn't the only thing you can go by. we certainly have a far greater number %-wise of good christian folk, who are so able to stand up for themselves and their beliefs that they have no problem with someone with an alternate view...because they know they are stalwart, and have NO fear at all of being turned away from their religion due to another group daring build a house of worship. i wonder if these folks think it's contagious? seriously, places like this, built out in the open, we shouldn't fear at all. they aren't the problem. it's those who hide and practice their hate in private you have to worry about. regardless of their religion-if you plan to commit, or do commit a crime, we should do everything in our power to keep from being duplicated. the simple practice of belonging to a religion isn't a crime, and shouldn't be treated as a criminal act.

some have said the mosque should be built further away, that two blocks is too close. so how far is far enough? three blocks, four, eight? hell, a mosque in texas was vandalized, i guess that was too close.

I'm all for banning all places of worship from cities and towns larger than 10,000 people. It's time that churches, mosques, hot bikram yoga places are sent to the hills where only taters and kissing cousins can be influenced.

I just hope the 'naked cowboy' heads over there before and after prayers and the carni operating the 'dunk a muslim tank' and 'three darts at Allah' has great success. Not to mention the troves of protestors of everything from the 'leave my clitoris in tact' crowd to the 'gay mulims' to the bible thumpers who shun muslims and gays and don't know what a clitoris is to the pro lifers who don't think anyone gay, straight, muslim, clitoris in tact or not should have an abortion. Only in America!
