I don’t know. The main problem I foresee is that it might ensnare other businesses already on site that are not trying to stir up the pot!

I’d hate to run afoul of someone’s legitimate private property rights just to prevent this mosque from being built.

Considering that mosque is partly house of worship but also partly a symbol of islamic conquest, I have been wondering if there are any laws against monuments honoring national enemies.

One doesn't have to be against, say, gun rights to believe that not everyone should be able to carry a gun--convicted terrorists, for example. Similarly, it doesn't make one against property rights to say that in this one case, maybe one or two property owners' rights are less important than allowing an existential threat to build a victory mosque on the sight where 3000 Americans were slaughtered. That's a LITTLE more important than building a Burger King or something.

I believe it's owned by some electric company. No one is disputing their “right to build” but we have a right to protest and continue to protest till we make these people so uncomfortable that they don't want to build.
