What I don't understand is why Muslims don't feel ashamed of how they're acting.

There's plenty of places they can build - without that process including giving the finger to so many Americans who lost loved ones.

Is there something in this 'religion' that makes their members into insensitive jerks?

Would the left applaud the right if we built a Church with a memorial to 'Weapons of War' at Hiroshima or Nagasaki?

“What I don't understand is why Muslims don't feel ashamed of how they're acting.” Some Muslims are speaking out concerning the insensitivity of the location. Others are at a loss to know why they SHOULD feel ashamed about it. I sure as hell am not ashamed of my faith because of The Westboro Baptist Church, the .10 percent of priests who have made a mockery of the faith, OR for what people did to each other 1000 years ago.

My entire point is, I don't want collections taken up at these gathering places to be funneled to terrorist organizations. I don't want terrorists’ rhetoric recruiting vulnerable young men and women who feel all the angst of youth. I don't want Sharia Law replacing what we have. I don't want women to be denigrated by misogynistic beliefs, or little girls bodies mutilated.

So long as they can preach love of God and Country, Home and Family, tolerance and peace — then they are as welcome to preach it as any Christian, Jew or Ethicist I can think of. That's my opinion and I'm stickin' to it.
