Learn some history, so you

Islam is a
made-up "religion." They were an offshoot of no other religion
ROTFLMAO!!
God, that's funny!

I'm not sure it's as cut and dry as you make it.

Certainly the teaching of extremists are a threat to be wary of.

However, we have millions of Muslims who live peacefully in this country and who worship God in their mosques.

So, if you want to stop this particular mosque, then prove that it would be a podium for extremist teachings. If you can't prove that, then the worship of these Muslims does not pose a threat.
Exactly, their real goal, is to continue their deliberate confusion between religion and people.
Just like somebody equating the KKK to Christianity as a faith.

Now read the 1st amendment and notice the word CONGRESS. It doesn't say Kennesaw.

It doesn't say towns. It doesn't say cities. Hell it doesn't even say States.
It says CONGRESS shall make no law.

So you are saying a town in the US can make any laws that supersede the laws made in Congress? Try again.

Cantwell vs. Connecticut and the 14th Amendment disagree with what you think. Let me know when you learn more about our country's law.

If the protections in Bill of Rights could be overruled by any podunk town council, they'd be worthless and you know it. Stop playing dumb because somebody else's ox being gored - this time.

I thought it would be interesting to look at the amount of Muslim violence in America. So I looked on the religion of peace website (A website dedicated to keeping track of how violent Muslims are) and this is what I found (on their website).

Since 1972 there have been 115 deaths caused by Muslims in America (Subtracting 9/11 because one day/3 attacks [as tragic and terrible as it was] drastically skews the numbers). The average number of deaths by Muslims in the United States is 2.7 deaths per year. If we factor in 9/11 (2,996 deaths since 1972) the average is 71.3 deaths per year. There are 6.67 million muslims in america (2.11% of the US population Muslim Population in America ). From 1972 to 2013 there were 798,116 murders in the US ( United States Crime Rates 1960 - 2013 ). That is an average of 19,466 per year. So if this year Muslims account for 2.11% of the population (and assuming that is the highest its ever been [percentage wise]) they should be responsible for (if distributed equally based on the percentage of population they hold) 410.73 deaths per year (2.11% of the average murder rate per year since 1972, 19,466). But since 1972 Muslims have only been responsible for 71.3 deaths per year (according to a site that does its best to keep up on Muslim murder rates [71.3 also accounting for 9/11]).

Kinda interesting to see that.

Interesting perspective. There was this very clever fellow who said something on the point of picking up stones. Carpenter, Jewish, long hair. Baseball bats weren't around at the time, but I think the principle carries over.

Nonsense.

How can a law or policy banning Islam ever stand in court? Are you suggesting the Constitution of the United States will be abolished?

What a bizarre fantasy you have!
