Proposed Mosque Rejection Met With Cheers From Locals

So by now you’ve heard about the “Ground Zero Mosque” right? Will if you haven’t you’re one of the lucky ones. The biggest reason people don’t want a religious cultural center built 2 blocks from ground zero is because it’s too close (so they say). So there shouldn’t be a problem with a proposed mosque located 965 miles away right? That should be far enough from ground zero right? Well, according to this Paducah Sun article, about 250 residents cheered when the city rejected the paperwork for a new mosque where previous permits had been granted for houses of worship for other faiths.

The current obsession with the building of mosques in America, the opposition, Newt Gingrich and Fox News’s horribly bigoted embrace of the “Anti-Islamization” meme, is dangerous. Dangerous for American Muslims, dangerous to American minorities in general, and dangerous to America herself, for what we are and what we could become.
