Islamic terrorists across the world must be laughing their heads off at this. How stupid.
 
Why on earth would anyone think this is a good idea? Are they deliberately trying to provoke or are they just a bit dim?
 
"It would be a terrible mistake to destroy a 154-year-old building in order to build a monument to terrorism," one woman said.

Pretty much says it all. Personally, I can't think of any better structure to go on the site, especially since the proposed "inter-faith community center and mosque" sounds like a mosque with a dedicated goal of spreading information and understanding. These people need to remember that it wasn't Muslims who destroyed the WTC, it was actual, real-life terrorists - hate-mongering fanatics launching an attack against a culture with the express view of cowing and wounding a society which they violently oppose. As mentioned, thousands of people died on that day, and they weren't all white Christians. Ignorance of where to draw the line is why such racial and religious tension is still so prevalent among the panicky masses, and comments like the one quoted hammer home just how blurred people's understanding really is.
