I'll tell you who needs to shut the fuck up: everybody who doesn't live in New York, that's who.
People seem to find it easy to tell some other state what they should or should not accept. But the tune often changes considerably when it's being built in your own backyard.
In the meantime, let's build a recruiting office for the American Nazi Party right next to a Jewish holocaust museum. Would that work for ya's..? Or how about if we dig up Lee Harvey Oswald and move his grave, so that he's buried right next to JFK's tomb. Or maybe we could even build a Church Of Satan right next to St. Patrick's Cathedral.
Doing any of the above would understandably lead to acts of desecration and violence. It's not just a 1st Amendment issue... it's also a civil unrest issue.
And there is still a question regarding the funding of this mosque project. It has been alleged that a sizable percentage of the funding is coming from Saudi Arabia and Iran... nations which have also financially backed terrorists in the past. If it was discovered that some of the people who are covertly funding this project were also involved in the financial backing for the 9/11 attacks, would everyone still feel that same way about allowing this mosque to be built..?
This is not an open-and-shut case. There is much to consider.

You seem to be missing the point man. People here are so wound up on the fact that not ALL muslims are terrorists that they are blind to the fact that SOME are.
The fact he won't disclose how he got the money when only a year ago he was waiting tables does indicate that it is being funded by Iran.
Is that a problem? Could be ya.
I just love how these people are all about the "constitution" and blah blah blah. The constitution went out the window with Obama's health care plan.
GO over to Iran and try and build a Catholic church.
