Are you saying the rule should be "No mosques in NYC"?

Should there be no Christian Churches in Waco TX, or OKC?
Leave them alone, no, I'm not saying that, and no, there should be.

Again, I'm not unhappy with the mosque being built. I have close muslim relatives and firmly discourage the ignorant misconceptions of the link between Islam and the extremist, terrorist factions. I am, however, unhappy with the decision to build in that specific location, despite the fact that people will be offended by it. I'm more disappointed with what seems to be an unwillingness to compromise for the sake of those who suffered losses during 9/11.

They don't have to build there. But I guess it has its purposes.
