Be silent.

Keep your forked tongue behind teeth.

I have not passed through Fire and death to belly creed words with a witless worm.

You are scum grant, you and everyone like you that try to justify your fascist opinions to subvert the very foundations of free speech, free worship and a democratic nation.

You and your fascist ilk are as much of a threat to this country as the terrorists are.

Justify it any way you want, but it will not change the end result, your hateful views will never take hold in this country.

Oh, I don't know. Maybe the people that flew two airliners into the twin towers and another into the Pentagon, and killed 3,000 people in 2001? Maybe the people vowing to destroy us with every breath in the ME?

Oh, and liberals ofcourse...:devil:

And the part you really don't understand is that saying "Muslims still have rights" isn't supporting those people.

You haven't personally condemned every evil act in the world, therefore you support every single evil act in the world.

You tacitly support all evil. Would you like to explain why you tacitly support all evil?

You, of all people, do not get to make claims like this. You are the one straight-up lying about people supporting "radical Islamists." Is there some reason you feel the need to blatantly lie about what people believe?

Seems to be a fundamental departure from the Constitution. Government should have nothing to say about the establishment of a building of worship.

Right-wingers don't care about the constitution. They throw it right out the window for everyone they even slightly dislike.

Blaming Islam for every terrorist attack committed in its name is really, really stupid. It's nothing more than knee-jerk guilt-by-association.

Yes, the Germans had to go through that with the Nazis and the Russians and Chinese with Communism. Not ALL KKKers lynched Blacks either, I suppose, but they still have a reputation for racism. Sometimes this guilt by association thing is just so unfair.

I was quite specific in which acts I condemned while you just generalize.

Here's a list and you tell me which crimes against humanity you don't condemn, okay? Islam: Making a True Difference in the World - One Body at a Time

That them thar Mus-a-lims iz e-vile terrowists or one of them thar terrowists sympo-thy-zers.

WTF!
Significant Minorities to Large Majorities of Muslims support those Harsh Punishments. The Pew numbers on the last page for the SECOND TIME.
WTF "handfull"?
This is so Dishonest or so willfully Blind as to be indebatable.


Again.
The polls I posted on the last page are a WORLDWIDE POLL of MUSLIMS by country, NOT "a few bad apples".
WTF!
Your posts stunningly Obtuse.
You obv!ously don't even know what a poll is!, as well as being so Disingenuous as to not be able to put up an honest answer.

Oh, For good measure:
(& for the liberal knee-jerkers out there)
Poll: UK Muslims have ZERO tolerance of Homosexuality. 0-fer-500
http://www.debatepolitics.com/europ...o-tolerance-homosexuality-0-fer-500-a-26.html
Guess they were just Stupendously unlucky and got all "bad apples" even in a Western country!
What were the Odds the of that if it weren't true? (from Gallup, no less)

I understand how polls works.Pollsters call a certain number of people and ask if those people who allegedly to belong to a certain demographic what they allegedly believe.They then apply those hundred or thousand so people they called to a whole entire demographic.

Who said they don't have rights? Surely not me...If you wanted to build a porn shop next to a school you'd get smacked down as well. That is not a violation of your rights.

I really don't know what else to call it when literally a person rails against his/her own country, while while in the process of advocating for the rights of its enemy....So no, I think you are dead wrong.

Looking at the list made me wonder why these people get a woody over beheadings. I mean, it's not enough to execute "humanely" by shooting; no, they dig the sawing and the blood. Maybe it's the "challenge" (although decapitating little kids doesn't seem like much of one).

Like left wingers, there is a range of beliefs within the group. One difference among people is along the statist-individualist continuum. The other response that I got from my statement about following the Constitution came from a left leaning type who reminded me of building codes and land use restrictions that generally liberals like and conservatives don't like. Generally it was liberals who applauded the Kelo vs New London decision.
If you lump everyone into one of two groups and ignore all the differences within the groups it is easy to find example of hypocrisy.

That's the right attitude j-mac, perfect eh...

"You don't want to curtail the rights of law abiding citizens so you stand with the terrorists".

Let me ask you Jet...Do you also support building a porn shop next to an elementary school? If not, why not? are you not curtailing the porn shop owners rights?

Worst analogy in this sites history.

Why are you trying so hard to be dishonest.

You accuse me of supporting terrorists because I don't believe we should curtail the rights of law abiding muslims in our nations.

Why would it be any different than any other building permit? If the project is big enough, the counsel has to approve it...Worship, or not.

Good point. I think that I was caught in the subtle discrimination of stereotyping. I saw Georgia and thought south, redneck, Christian fundamentalist, and all that and assumed that was the problem when there could be some "liberal" types on the city council who believe in regulated land use planning, building codes, and a community master plan.

I like it when they prove me right.

"Rights of the enemy." You think Islam is the enemy and therefore doesn't have rights. That's it. You've tossed out the first amendment. It's over.

Let's flip it around for you:

The KKK is a terrorist group.
Terrorists are the enemy of America.
Therefore, Christianity is the enemy of America and you shouldn't argue for the rights of Christianity.

Now you, j-mac, tell me why I'm wrong.

Ahh, so you think a mosque is analogous to a porn shop. Explain why, j-mac, and while you're at it keep trying to convince people that you don't hate all Muslims.

It goes back to religion and if that religion overrides what the west considers to be anti human rights and freedoms, that millions seeking a democracy have fought for through the centuries, then it's our responsibility to speak out.

It's not clear to me how anyone can support Islamic terrorism, or remain silent on the subject, but that's what we have today. Human beings are strange animals.

Worst confusion in this sites history.

No one is curtailing the rights of Muslims. The city agreed to the mosque and it will likely go ahead. Ignorance is not your friend. Read, learn, and then comment.
