I respect him a lot for this as the entire controversy is increadibly stupid.

Anyone against this new mosque is a huge hypocrite (if american) and is severly denouncing the best ideals of our Constitution.

I'd be willing to bet that 99% of the people reading this aren't American, but just the European conquerers who decided to kick us REAL Americans in the ass and take our names. As a true American (as in my family's been here for 15000 years), I do not support this. Your people did nearly the same thing to mine, and we weren't exactly happy, and some of us still aren't over it.

nearly the same thing?  The US Killing millions of indians (mostly from their diseases, an independent study says between 10-114 million killed from direct result of US actions), forcing them off their native land, and killing their culture is the same as 3000 killed from tiny extremist minority of a 1.5 billion strong religion?
