A feud between two Transit Road neighbors -- a homeowner and a mosque -- turned ugly this weekend when the homeowner staked a sign on his front lawn insinuating that the new 11,600-square-foot Islamic worship site is home to a "bomb making" operation.
Michael Heick, who lives next door to the Jaffarya Islamic Center of Niagara Frontier, put a small sign that reads "Bomb Making Next Driveway" to northbound traffic on Transit Road. The next driveway on the same side of the road as Heick's home heading north is the Jaffarya Center, at 10300 Transit.
Mosque members and other area Muslims objected to the sign and called upon Heick to take it down.
"I would really think it's an incitement of hatred against Muslims," said Dr. Syed Jaffri, an Amherst psychiatrist and member of the mosque's board of trustees. "Law enforcement should take it very seriously. Tomorrow, somebody could say, 'Oh they have weapons,' and people believe it."
Heick said he put up the sign because he was frustrated with how the mosque and Amherst town officials have handled his concerns about the building, which opened in November.
"The place is too close. I don't care what people think. It doesn't matter what people think," he said Monday evening from his front porch. "This is a way to get answers now. I get none from the town. The intent was to catch the eye of the people who I have a problem with."
Heick has long complained that bright lights from the mosque encroach upon his yard and violate town code. He's demanded that the mosque put up a 6-foot-tall fence along his property line, but mosque officials have objected, saying it's too costly.
Instead, they planted shrubs that will grow beyond 6 feet within a few years, they said.
Mubarak Abidi, mosque president, said he called Amherst police over the weekend about the sign but was told there was nothing illegal about it.
"They said there's nothing in the law that we can do anything about this sign," he said.
Heick said the sign was not directed at anyone in particular.
"It does not say what driveway. It doesn't say at the mosque," he said. "I have issues with the mosque. The sign is not directed at anybody. If they feel it's at them, that's how they feel."

No, I’m not an attorney. And, yes, anyone can sue anyone over anything. It doesn’t take a brilliant legal mind, however, to deduce a potential tort for the wording of his sign. Free speech doesn’t allow for defamation without some proof. What he needed to do is word the sign as an opinion and not a statement of fact.
Beheading center two doors down would have been much better.
Yes. That may have felt good at the moment but was not very wise. I would have been tempted to put out bright pink concrete pigs as yard art, personally.
Woman haters club next drive.
I’ll be in the neighborhood this Friday and will make sure to stop by and show him my support.
Mosques are “weapons of mass destruction” factories and in the last 2 decades we have seen ample proof of this. Unfortunately our government is doing everything possible to minimize any linkage to these vile bottom dwellers. Remember Holder dancing on the head of a pin attempting to disassociate any connection between the Ft. Hood shootings and these scum of the earth moon god worshipers?
Their comic book for retards is being used by the weak minded to fuel their anger and rage towards the rest of the world and it should come as no surprise we have grown tired of their filthy phony religion of hate.
Very Expansionistic name for a mosque.These Islamists have their sights set on taking this country over, and we can't sit back and watch any longer.
Audio of squealing pigs at prayer time.
He’s probably right. Consider the huge mosque being built in Murphreesboro, Tn. There aren’t that many muslims in the area to need a mosque that big. I don’t believe it’s for worshipping only. The next point is why do they have concertina wire around their “churches”. It’s the only “religion” where that is normal.
Moslems are dogs. That's why they have to keep their women (and I use the term loosely) covered from head to toe.
What he should have said on his sign was "terrorist training center next driveway" This can be proven straight from the koran.

A muslim psychiatrist, eh? Man, has he got his work cut out for him!
I also live in Amherst, NY (miles away as Amherst is a pretty big suburb) and can’t fathom that many Muslims needing a large mosque there. There is a large amount of muslims in Lackawanna, NY, but that is clear across the county. I can’t imagine any traveling to the new mosque in East Amherst.
Would such a creature even recognize personality pathologies?
These Muslims are fresh off the banana boat. And they start trying to push Americans around whose roots go back decades and centuries
Fence his property and keep a pet boar - anything above a 500 pounder will do.
Better yet, saddle break it and ride it in the area.
