Sure, but not every claim of ad hominem was an attack... most were disagreements where there was no counter, so... ad hominem!

PROOF?


As you know, or ought to know, it's very difficult to provide proof of a negative. However, to a person who was even vaguely familiar with Manhattan generally and who knew the community center's proposed location specifically, I think it would be extremely surprising if Ruthless Slaughter's claim were not true.

But that wasn't enough for me. So I did a little experiment that you can easily duplicate yourself. I played around a bit in Google Street View, finding the community center's location (which in Google Maps is a Burlington Coat Factory building at 51 Park Place) and trying to find an angle from which I could see any part of Ground Zero. I probably spent twenty minutes on this, and I didn't manage to catch even a glimpse of Ground Zero.

Again, you can try this yourself. I doubt your results will be any different, but if they are, I'd be interested to see a screenshot.

But how is this comparable? The Muslims erecting this center didn't cause or partake in the deaths on 9/11 (if anything, some may have been in the buildings/running into the buildings to save people). The terrorists who did attack the WTC no more represent these Muslims then the WBC represents Christianity or Nazis represent Germany. There's no link.



this argument is liberal bullshit.
No one I know has made this argument.
but you keep making up false assertions then keep knocking them down
we are all real impressed by that

I wouldn't call it a protest. We don't have people going around with picket fence signs demonstrating their beliefs in words on a sign.

Liberal? How in the hell...?
And I am impressed with the way he has debated this. You on the other hand have not made a viable argument against the construction of the building.

But I do know that Liberal whackos LOVE to take a argument NO one has made
focus on THAT and
ignore the real argument .

again I keep asking for one of so called intellectuals here in this thread to show me a conservative who has made the argument
that a private owner of a piece of property should NOT be able to do with it as they see fit.
