Excellent point about the rule of law and the dangers of abandoning principle and letting oneself be swept up in woh woh woh woh FEEEEEELings....

Yes, build the mosque and then allow high school graduations to begin with a prayer. Allow elementary aged children to celebrate their birthdays with cupcakes made in the shapes of crosses if they so desire and share those cupcakes with all children.

*Radical Muslims have set cities afire because their feelings were hurt.*
I don’t know about anybody else, but it makes me desire to go into attack mode when someone threatens violence to me.
If cities are set afire then the criminals that set the fire should be executed, not placated.

It's not about "feelings" - it's about not letting our enemies use our own laws and traditions as a stick to beat us with.
If it's about anyone's "feelings" it's about the sense of contempt and hauteur of Muslim radicals.

The mosque should be built precisely because we don't like the idea very much. I should refer to President Obama as a great big n-word precisely because the Left won't like the idea very much. In fact, I must call the president the n-word -- if I value our culture of toleration.

Sorry but I disagree, we stop it by criminalizing it - by establishing and proving that the primary intent of building this "mosque" on that particular site is an arrogant and divisive display of religious and ethnic chauvinism and profane provocation meant to willfully intimidate others and therefore has a potential to incite an immediate breach of the peace.
One's freedom or rights are not absolute, not when they infringe upon the rights or the freedoms of others.
This is an instance where one group's rights fall outside the bounds of constitutional protection.

It isn’t about feelings. It’s about recognizing the fact that this is the routine for Islamic takeover and not being STUPID when it comes to your enemies.
To: detritus
Demanding tolerance when you yourself give none .... Islam. Been to East Jerusalem lately? Which religion is removing all remnants of all other religions? Can Hindus and Christians build a temple or church in Mecca? Rule of law and the abandonment of principles is and are immaterial when they are not being applied across the board evenly or being applied when convenient or for political expediency. =.=

Same holds true for adjacent hog processing plants. Why people don’t start attacking the Achilles heel of this cult, I just don’t understand.

The mosque should be built precisely because we don't like the idea very much. So does this mean the Moslems must allow a Catholic Cathedral to be built in Mecca precisely because they wouldn't like it very much?
Saul Alinsky says to hold your enemy to his own rules. That's what you want to do to us, Kate. Do you want to do it to the Moslems, too, or do you draw the line there?

What a bunch of drek! This poor woman is so brain dead that she can’t tell the difference between showing respect for the dead and emotions. But then she was probably raised by pigs and the poor thing doesn’t know any better.

The mosque should be built precisely because we don't like the idea very much. Oh puuhleeeeeeeeeze. What a ridiculous rationale given the circumstances.
We tolerate plenty of stuff we dont like. There is such a thing as asking too much, and the GZ mosque is a perfect example.
