Am I the only one getting tired of people in this thread bitching about "the right wing" being the big problem and how the media fucks everything up? For the last few posts there hasn't been much discussion about the planned mosque, it's mostly anti-conservative sentiment. I'm not saying this because I am a conservative, I'm saying this because I'm tired of everyone blaming the conservatives for not wanting the mosque to be built. It's a true cop-out, not having an opinion of your own and blaming a political party for saying something you don't like. I'd like to read people's opinions of the issue at hand and not hear all of this "conservatism is only propaganda!" bullshit. You give these little quips that don't contribute jack shit to the discussion, and you think you've said something smart because you think it's "exposing the real side of the issue", but you aren't, we've heard it all before. Please, use your fucking head to think about the quality of your post and if it actually contributes anything to the thread.
We all know they have a right to build a mosque wherever they want, no matter who gets offended or doesn't like it. That's what America is, a free country. Everyone has acknowledged that. But who here thinks the placement of the mosque is the BEST idea? Tell me why you think it must be built in that spot and not some where else of equal importance but less controversial.
My first post in this thread was very clearly against the building of the mosque. I have since changed my mind on this issue and my thoughts have taken a complete U-turn, thanks to this thread and the other members opinions alone. My opinion now is: they have the right to build it there and they should build it there, whether it's "morally right" or "morally wrong" is irrelevant. Morals don't matter, the law does.
