Building on the Ground Zero Site

I am opposed to anyone building a red herring on the site of the 911 attack. I wish we could just ignore the issue. It was created as a provocative and emotional distraction. We derail our community and sew fear when we attend to the mewling of these creeps like the pathological ego-freak in Florida who thinks it is an act of liberation to burn books.

We can't ignore them. Like any emotional attack, if it stands without challenge it attracts even reasonable, caring people who may never have considered how really outrageous are these things we are expected to swallow. I remember being told that if we didn't carpet bomb Southeast Asia we would be fighting communists in our suburbs.
