For him, I think he's trying to appeal to the far, far fanatic Right and the people in between who are still frightened. Politics. Gotta love 'em.Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09002997517784638068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5080372433953859587.post-29367444625789135192011-07-18T15:07:08.403-04:002011-07-18T15:07:08.403-04:00ok am back. lol What is wrong with him?

It's not a soap box so much as it is a...slice,<br /><br />It's not a soap box so much as it is a soap tower, actually! :)<br /><br />See, the example you've given is different. In that case, the mosque (if I understand right) wanted special treatment. They wanted to just be given the property without paying for it because they deserved it for being so awesome or something? Which is stupid. If you want to build a church/temple/mosque, then you do what everyone else has to do. Find the correct property, purchase it, go through all the zoning and building crap, etc. <br /><br />Cain is saying that it's not discriminatory for people to oppose the building of a mosque for no other reason than that there will be Muslims in it.Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09002997517784638068noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5080372433953859587.post-45818924449101465282011-07-18T14:49:54.745-04:002011-07-18T14:49:54.745-04:00woooooooooooooow weeeeeeee Amber. Let me help you...woooooooooooooow weeeeeeee Amber. Let me help you down from your soap box. You kind of lost me there.<br /><br />Am gonna read the cain thing and then come back.<br /><br />But before I do that. I do know that the local super mosque was opposed where I live. <br /><br />and the reason was, the "people", planners achitects, thought that the land should be given for free. where as I think the paper said all other religions that are in this town, bought their land themselves. Unfortunately, this town needs schools. THere are 45 children in the classes right in the school opposite my house.and the land is very scarce now due to huuuuuuuugggggeeeeee housing estate and more people... Land for free dont fly here. Kids in schools come first for me everytime. Sorry if people dont like that. But I think 45 kids in one class with one harrassed teacher is too much. how can they learn?<br /><br />maybe it is something like that?<br /><br />Off to read.<br /><br />Await my next commentSolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00809314184012834659noreply@blogger.com
