Response to Sara Ceraso about the Mosque

The idea of building a Mosque near ground zero is not what offends me. The idea of building anything at that site other then a Memorial or the towers again is something I can not agree with. Land which has seen this type of blood should be sacred and protected. Like the U.S.S. Arizona in Pearl Harbor or Gettysburg Battlefield, I do not think it should be disturbed. Maybe I am a bit to emotionally attached to this incident, as it happened when I was in the service. I was very happy when the U.S.S. New York was launched, as it was built with metal collected from the remains of the towers. This ship serves as a living memorial to those who lost their lives that day. But the land there, in D.C. and in the field in PA should be left alone, a stark reminder of what hatred does to people of any sort.
