9 elected reps plus the mayor do speak for New York ... again "democracy" look it up.
Horrible backward views are not in the majority since most don't make the link between "fundamentalist bombers" and "Muslims". Most get the fact that these fundamentalist had an agenda and wanted to hide it behind the veil of respectability by calling there terrible deeds "holy". They weren't the first and won't be the last. They want to incite hate against all Muslims to enlarge their ranks. Some don't get this but MOST do. We know this because the Mosque is going to be built and the majority don't want to deny honest and decent Muslims the right to pray in a mosque. Denying them that right would be like saying "no..you were to blame!!!" and that's exactly what they are NOT saying by letting the plans go ahead.

Nobody wants to incite hate against all muslims lol Obviously muslims feel bad for those people who by no fault of their associated with religion. But building a mosque there isn't really going to help prejudice views is it? Yes, they can build it wherever they want, they can pray wherever they want, just seems an odd move that is all. Almost like doing themselves no favours, and the fact it's knocking down a 150 year old building doesn't help either. They don't
need a mosque there they
want one there. Don't get why there needs to be so much hassle for the sake of "Cos we can". Maybe idiots like the terrorist will decide to bomb that too? Then more lives lost. Just doesn't seem the best thought out idea.
