http://opportunitynyc.org/, why not this? Those institutions would be infinitely better suited to this community than a mosque.

If the city wants a reaffirmation of our resiliency and way of life, what better way to illustrate it than to provide education and housing for our citizens, right there in the sight of such tragedy.

Not for nuthin’ e_STmk,but if building a mosque at 51 Park Pl. is an affirmation of our freedoms, then it should be open season to host a Nazi boot-camp at a synagogue, hoist a Japanese flag over the Arizona or a Klu Klux Klan meeting in Al Sharpton’s office.
