While there has been a lot of attention shown on the Muslim center the is blocks away from ground zero, it should be noted that what the liberal media isn't telling you that there have been protests against 14 other proposed Muslim construction projects across America. The only problem is that these other 14 projects don't dishonor anyone and just show the hate that the right is showering on Muslims.
For conservatives who claim to hold the constitution is the highest regard, to so blatantly ignore the freedom of religion that is afforded by the first amendment, is concerning. This is done out of fear. Acting out of fear has never had good results for the US. See Japanese internment and McCarthyism.
One other thing for the right to consider. By dividing the country you are letting the terrorists win. They wanted to weaken our country and there is nothing more detrimental to our democracy than having one group decide that our democratic principles don't apply to another group. Doing so make us no better than them.
