Yes in the constitution it states freedom of religion, speech, press, assembly, and petition... But why would someone push so hard to build something somewhere, when it is hurting others, and so many are against Forget the "LAW" what about morals, and compassion, and consideration for others? There are several mosques in the area, why build there? Why not move it somewhere else just because, people dont want it there!?

I think it's some kind of reverse psychology going on. Since US Americans think that Islamic people are terrorists then building a mosque there would mean that there are no more bombing that is going to occur there. I'm just guessing. Or maybe they are trying to show that we can live together.
Why are people so enraged by the Islamic religion, is this some form of racism that US is putting together? Damn racists.

See that's the thing that gets me, every time a controversy comes up it is always blamed on racism, i think its cos its America and we are supposed to be all about equal rights and such, and people are always trying to prove that we aren't. That we are a bunch of hypocrites.
That isnt the case in this issue. This subject has gone so much deeper then that. This guy, Imam, that is pushing so hard to get this done, is steering people the wrong way, especially the people that are only seeing one side. His comments regarding "American political structure is Sharia compliant" are totally off of the mark. He is very deceptive to a LOT of people and has hidden motives behind the Mosque. Its not a innocent building of a mosque. He is trying to open a door that will allow him to have a lot of influence on America Being "sharia compliant" We have already heard him voice his opinions regarding how right Islam is and how wrong Americans are. There is just more to this then people are realizing.

That is a very good question and one that I'm sure only a few people can answer. It almost seems as if they are doing it just to show that they can and to be mean, but maybe that's not the case...maybe?
Morals? Compassion? Consideration of others? Not at all present in building a Mosque near ground zero. I have to wonder what the real reason is they insist on putting one there, when they knew from the beginning that the majority of American citizens would not want one there.
There has to be more to this than what's on the surface.

Okay, let's just step back for a moment. Chiang_Mai_boy, did you notice where that article on that "ultra right rant" originally was aired? It was aired on a liberal T.V. station! The article itself merely stated what was said. Let's don't condemn everything just because it's on a site that we personally don't like or believe in.
Leslie is right. We are in the end times and people need to take the blinders off and dig for truth to find out what is really going on.
Another thing, did I see that someone mentioned "racism?" How about prejudice toward people or sites that are conservative (AKA "ultra right")? Is there a word for that?

This website gives a good rendition of what is going on.

We are in the end times... I truly believe that. People need to wake up and see what is really going on.

It's irrelevant what type of building it is.
Either the ground is special and so should be reserved for a national monument of some kind, or it's not, in which case anyone can build whatever want.
