Again, this would be a complete non-issue if the Port Authority had not wasted nine years arguing over the construction of the Freedom Tower.

If this:

Instead looked like this:

Would we be having this argument? Would it be national news? No. People have turned the Ground Zero (a hole in the ground) into a goddamn shrine. It's time to move on people.

Why don't you answer the question, how far away would it have to be to be deemed acceptable in your eyes? Let's see how trivial you're being here, what kind of distance would it have to be? You can use feet, miles, hectares or whatever.

After a week of debilitating strikes at targets across Afghanistan, the Taliban repeated an offer to hand over Osama bin Laden, only to be rejected by President Bush.
The offer yesterday from Haji Abdul Kabir, the Taliban's deputy prime minister, to surrender Mr bin Laden if America would halt its bombing and provide evidence against the Saudi-born dissident was not new but it suggested the Taliban are increasingly weary of the air strikes, which have crippled much of their military and communications assets.
Mr Bush said. "We know he's guilty. Turn him over. There's no need to discuss innocence or guilt."

I wonder how many of them are paid protesters (on both sides).

And to you, it's a cartoon.

The distance is trivial. It's bad form, dirty pool to build a community center that close.

Stupid, inaccurate cartoon to be honest. For fucks sake look at a map instead of a cartoon for facts. It as fucking ground zero as it gets.
So you know this because you left your home in Florida and visited the place? Have you ever even been to Ground Zero? If you had, you'd know that 3 city blocks is about a ten minute walk. That's hardly right on top of it.

You walk mother fucking slow brutha.

Yes, but what is more important? The Constitution, or what some angry mob of people wants?

Landing gear taken from the first plane that hit the towers which crashed through the roof at said sight.

Let's see some more fucking cartoons though.

Comparatively speaking; I hope you were not trying to achieve an emotive trigger with that engine picture.

It's not greed, it's simply refusing to be locked into a state of mourning for infinity. Fuck shrines. Move on.

Er, no. And it's a part of the landing gear WHICH CRASHED THROUGH THE BUILDING where the mosque is supposed to be built.

I don't care what the Muslims want? I do get the Constitution argument. I just think that this great 'religion of peace' should show some 'respect'.

@ galt. I count 2 city blocks away & no I haven't visited NY (in ages) or ground zero -does that invalidate my opinion?

Doesn't invalidate it, just makes me wonder why you care about a place so much that you will never visit. It's kind of like New York City people ranting and raving about the need to turn more of Alaska into protected refuges.

I will visit. Honestly, I didn't care until the educated elitist arguments came out (http://forums.bf2s.com/viewtopic.php?pi … 3#p3166823). However, since I've decided to be against it.... just because.

Ah... I have been to Alaska and I'm not so sure it need more protected refuges.
