This mosque is an insult.

Legally barring this mosque from being erected is obviously unconstitutional. The two possible outcomes of the conservative outrage over this: a.) stop the mosque in an act of oppression, giving global validation to the idea we're evil anti-Islam heathens, or b.) fail to violate the constitution and stop the mosque, thus giving bloody Islam a cultural victory.

This is a real-life, multimillion dollar troll. Dolt conservatives have fallen for it, and the United States have already lost this small battle.

there is a third option, that i think is actually very likely:

the people who wanted to build there will voluntarily move elsewhere, even though they don't have to do so. to me, this would show a compassion that is above and beyond anything they have an obligation to do, which would go a long way in terms of helping to open dialog with ignorant people and actually improve relations between the two factions involved.
