I feel this is a very touchy subject and as such I imagine what I have say with stir up emotions for people on both sides of the argument. I am a firm believer in the constitution, and in that constitution it gives the people of the United State freedom to practice whatever religion they want. It also separates that religion from the state. We were founded this way to ensure that anyone could practice their beliefs in America, the land of the free.
I am not a fan of anything that happened on September 11. I think it is a horrible pock on American history, made by radicals, but I do not believe that it changes the constitution. If the community of Islam wants to build a mosque near where a radical group claiming to be Islamic did something horrible then so be it.
I also feel as though we have become a society without a spine, folding to the wants of anyone willing to be loud enough. Well enough is enough, quit the damned double standard, pick either free or not, and let this be the starting point. Let them build their mosque, but make them follow the laws of America. There is no such thing as Sharia law in America.
