Not one has answered why THIS location is so important other than to falsely try to turn it into a 1st Amendment arguement.
And liberal/progressives don't even believe in the 1st amendment!

Do you really want to start tallying up the body counts that were racked up in the name of Jesus?

Doesn't matter. It's constitutionally protected.

Unlike you intolerant ninnies, Hawaii didn't blame the ENTIRE Japanese American populace for what Japan did. Many of them were 2nd, 3rd and 4th generation removed from Japan's influence, and the 442nd, the MOST DECORATED squadron in all of World War II, consisted of many Japanese Americans, MOST came from Hawaii.


You may want to know learn the DIFFERENCE between Islam and RADICAL ISLAM (the religion that the 911 highjackers followed)

Would you like it that the actions of the Westboro Baptist Church is representative of the entire Christian faith?


As to the what Obama praised, good on him . Religious intolerance is sickening in this thread.

This location is important because the space has been in use as a Muslim meeting place for years.

I don't think it's a 1st amendment argument- I just think it's a litmus test for worth as a human being. Those that cry the loudest about the community center (often making threats of violence or inappropriate behavior along the way) don't count for much in my book. My people have been discriminated against based off of the actions of a few for thousands of years- to see that happen in a country that prides itself on it's freedom and tolerance towards others is an ABSOLUTE disgrace.

Really? And even if you truly believe that, and take it as a lesson learned but nothing else, you don't mind being just like them.
