GROUND ZERO MOSQUE PLANS APPROVED- "Shame on you"!

The New York City Landmarks Commission unanimously voted Tuesday (9 to 0) to deny landmark designation to the site of the proposed mosque near Ground Zero, paving the way for the controversial community center and worship space to rise two blocks from the site of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. Video clip from FOXNY. Immediately after the decision the crowd can be heard yelling "Shame on you". God help this country!

The mafia will determine whether that Mosque gets built.

Nothing is built without their say so.

[Venturer]

Who will build it?

Probably got 5 or 6 bidders on the job right now.

Money talks and BS walks.

Sure they will bid on it , and the suppliers will deliver the goods.

Stop dreaming that no American contractor or Union will build this.

In America “silence” has NEVER denoted approval. For that standard you have to go to the REST OF THE WORLD where, among other things, it is commonly the case that you must prove your innocence if charged with a crime.

The Turks took over Sicily for awhile back in the late Middle Ages.

They don’t give a crap about the costs. We are funding it for them each time we fill up at the pump.

We need an energy policy that isn’t a profits policy for the ME, and NOT just a green one.

"In America “silence” has NEVER denoted approval."

Not trying to be contentious, FRiend, but that is exactly what the legal maxim is.

Qui Tacet Consentire Videtur. "Silence Gives Consent" is a principle of American Jurisprudence handed down from English Common Law. It can be traced as far back as the early Greek City/States. The Athenians expressed it as “Auto de to sigan homologountos esti sou” and it was quoted in the plays of Euripides.

Bottom line: If you don't speak up, you get what's comin' to you.

(Ever hear the end of a civil wedding ceremony? "Speak now, or forever hold your peace.")

Try and bring overseas construction workers to build this. Get your popcorn ready because there’s not enough money to payoff all the unions in NYC, there will be a war.

[Recon Dad]

In NYC everything is union built. We shall see if they step up and say no.

[bandleader]

With The White House under siege(as well as The US Constitutio)??

[cookcounty]

Now, when will the Museum of Islamic Atrocities be built across the street, and where do we send donations?

Like the HIV attacks the human immune system, PC is attacking and killing the body politic.

[muawiyah]

The 1790 Constitution formalized the pre-existing right to be silent in any criminal case without that being held against you ~ IN THE FIFTH AMENDMENT.

Going beyond that, it's pretty well established that the right to contract is sacred ~ so they gotta' get your name on the line ~ and over the years this country has spent quite a bit of time ferreting out every last bit of "silence implying consent" until now you can name the instances of it still existing in the law on the fingers of one hand.

I hope you’re right.

BOYCOTT NEW YORK CITY

Hard to boycott something you've already boycotted for 50 other reasons.

[catfish1957]

Wow, does this mean we get to start a Baptist Church in Saudi Arabia? /s

[R. Scott]

Maybe in a couple hundred years.
