You gotta have a thicker skin for the internet bud. If you post a picture of yourself, expect for some **** to be said.

Honestly you got a pretty mild reaction. I have seen WAY worse.

I have a feeling they will put a lot of security around it in the form of cameras and security guards because of the controversy behind it. If they WERE to do that, it would **** even more people off because you don't see them protecting christian, jewish, or catholic places of worship like that.

every single person that walks in that place will be watched by DHS, NSA, CIA, and some other acronym's we probably do not even know about.. Some crazy American will blow the **** up anyway.. It is asking for nothing but trouble building that ****

You know, you might be right. Perhaps this was built as a trap to catch possible terrorists. Lol. I still see it being majorly vandalized.

The only problem is....if some American blows up that mosque, then the terrorists will be hell-bent on attacking again.

i believe its a reasonable thing to be upset about.

most muslims are not terrorists.

most terrorists in the recent past have been muslim.

the ones acting have were extremists (much like any group that does something drastic)

now i'm sure that in the old world they did not appreciate catholics with the crusades and everything. (one reason why the extremist muslims do not like christianity)

and i know that in saudi arabia and possibly other muslim countries, they dont really care if your christian, you just get taxed a little more..

Yes but we did build memorials on Iwo Jima. And I have been there and brought back sand for all the vets in my community. Probably one of the best moments in my life.

Most Muslim's are peaceful but do I sense there doing this on purpose yes probably. Either way it's probably gonna be built. So ranting about in on LS1TECH is defiantly not gonna accomplish ****. Go to you State and start a petition if this really effects you. People talk more BS than actually doing something these days. Hell im gonna run for Mayor in my community in the future b/c I want change in it.

Im all for talking politics and about this great country. But when all you do is talk thats when nothing gets done.
