I thought the whole burning of the Qu'ran was ridiculous and thank God they didn't go through with it.
And why shouldn't an Islamic community centre be built TWO BLOCKS away? It isn't the entire religion that attacked the world trade centre, the Muslims won't be spitting on site every time they walk past it! Just pathetic hate mongering.
As for the real matter here, the terrible event that happened, I'd like to echo Cheebs in my condolences for anybody who was personally affected by it.
What are people's thoughts on the construction of the "Freedom tower"? I may be wrong, but I believe it's being built on the site of the original towers. I personally think that's very disrespectful. Not just to those who died there, but to those who were left behind. The site itself, being left empty like it was, became a very sensitive place for people. Being left empty, it represented what was left behind that day and I just feel they should have thought about what they were doing more.
