Before I state my personal opinion on the mosque debate I want to point out that both sides have good arguments. The Pro-mosque party states reasons as it’s their 1st amendment right to freedom of religion. However, we are NOT denying them their religion, we just do not want a new mosque so near ground zero in respect of the 9/11 victims. Muslims have a mosque only four blocks away from ground zero so why did they need a new one? New York isn’t the only state having a mosque infestation; Murfreesboro, Tennessee is against a building of a mosque as well. Laurie cardoza-moore, mosque opposition leader, states Islam teaches Muslims that Jews and Christians are infidels and should be killed. She also states that she is trying to stop the advancement of radicalism Islam in the United States. Many people back in New York are showing their passion with signs. After reading many articles and seeing many pictures/videos/signs, I decided I am personally against the building of the mosque. I believe it is wrong to build a mosque so close to where the twin towers were destroyed by Muslim hijackers. So many people died that day and we should be just as offended as the property owner. I am truly against it although it is not in my control. I say the United States should compromise with them somehow and we can get passed this so we can have a win-win situation
