Mosque at Ground Zero
Biph Tuesday, August 24, 2010 First of all, the so-called "right-wing" in the United States is full of hypocrites and assholes. Second of all, they are right when they state that building a Mosque near ground zero is in poor taste. Third of all, they can all go screw themselves, there is no law preventing the Mosque from being built and efforts to stop it are strictly against the First Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America.
While I consider myself to be a conservative to moderate person, I do not throw my support behind the assbaggers like Sean Hannity (who will not shut his flippin' mouth about the Mosque) or Glen Beck (who has a new conspiracy crawling out of his ass every day). They are all 100% wrong on the so-called "Ground Zero Mosque". The controversial Imam at the center of this whole ordeal seems to be a total douche based on what these confirmed douches say about him, but I don't care one way or the other - he has a right to his douchey opinions. And the right to petition his local authorities to build a Mosque wherever the frig he wants. The city and local authorities are approving it, so shut up. For a bunch of panty-waist pussies crying about how much Christianity gets shit on, they sure as hell have a double standard going when it involves a religion they don't subscribe to. They have a First Amendment Right to bitch and moan, but they shouldn't be hypocritical when they do it, despite their right to do so - just because someone has a right to do something, it doesn't mean it is right to do so. It is offensive to build a Mosque so close to Ground Zero (the building was hit by a falling piece of one of the plane's landing gear). Rightfully so, as it is a temple to enshrine the religion that was used to justify the destruction the buildings on September 11, 2001. However, what's the magic distance to shut the asshats up who are bitching now? Riyadh? I personally feel that the Imam should take the high road and propose the building be put up outside of the major debris zone, but he has a right to propose and build right where he has requested. Of course, just because you have a right to do something, it doesn't mean it is right to do so. In the end there will be no winners or losers in this fight - with the exception of the talking heads and their increased advertising revenue. The Mosque is built and has a large portion of the community filled with animosity towards the people who attend services and use the rest of the facility - and assholes a world away think of it as a victory against a great oppressor. Or, the Mosque doesn't get built and our Constitution is weakened a bit more in the area of the freedom of religion. Print View Thank you for visiting biph.com.
