I have a question based on the sensitivity vs responsibility arguement.

Lets say I went to someone's house and killed them then the police shot me down right there on the spot. My parents decided to buy a plot of land next to the other dead guys parents then built a statue (lets imagine they could do that) saying: "In memory of XYZ"

My parents would be perfectly allowed to build whatever they like based upon having these "Amercian freedoms", but in the circumstances, would it be right to specifically next to the other persons house based upon what had previously happened? It would clearly be insensitive when they probably be fine with building it just not in that exact radius.

Is it right to build a Chruch next to a Abortion clinic.....No

Is it right to build a mosque as part of the building....? This debate is going to rage on for years. Tbh I would be suprised if it ever gets fully built. In America thing's take years as it is to build...


Your example does nto make sense as the family of the killer is not the same relation as the other billion Muslims to the terrorist who plotted and performed the 9/11 attacks and the killer's actual tomb is not the same as a new Mosque.

Your example is a logical fallacy.

If you had read the first sentence correctly you would have noticed I was talking about the sensitivity vs responsibility argument. I wanted to know how far these "American Freedoms" will stretch.

I was just curious as to if it would or would not be allowed.

It would be allowed.  No law to stop it. 

Which is largely the point everyone ignores because they want to scream "OMG RACISTS!!!!!1!1!1!"

Just because you CAN do something doesn't mean you should.

Exactly.
