But when a Muslim group were building a community center, they were all for stirring up controversy and implying that it shouldn't be allowed, because a "ground zero mosque" is offensive.
I mentioned on another thread (or maybe this one) that (here in the new town I live in) a new neighbour got in an argument with me that ended with him trying to choke the life out of me, my wife beating back his arm with her cane, and him pushing her off her feet and storming out.
The offense was over a discussion of that mosque, and his response was: would we allow a Shinto shrine to be built near Pearl Harbor? After I pointed out on Mapquest seven Shinto shrines closer than the proposed mosque, he snapped in a fury of Christian love.
What gets me though is that so many so-called conservative Americans allow a foreigner like Rupert Murdoch tell them what to think. Next he'll run for the office of "Jesus."
