A law that banned all houses of worship regardless of faith or denomination would be comparable with a gun ban. Trying to block muslim houses of worship specifically is not comparable.
Calling the people who carried out the attacks of 9 years ago muslims would be like calling Timothy McVeigh an American patriot, and refusing to allow a mosque to be built because of them is ugly and shameful. Obama is correct in supporting the right of all people to religious freedom, and given the absurd scale this has achieved I don't think he was out of line to speak in his official capacity either. The head of state is supporting a fundamental right upon which your country was founded. How is this wrong?
This ceased to be a local issue the minute it made international headlines.
