lolz: enjoy: Apparently the mosque is a symbol of conquest, in the same vein as the Ottomans building a mosque in Constantinople after conquest
I'm all for the right of a property owner to build what they see fit on their own property, but if you think that the mosque's location is an accident, I have a bridge to sell you. The mosque is a symbol of the West's dhimmitude. There won't be a new, elaborate church or synagogue built in Mecca any time soon.
My guess is Paladino will lose the primary, but he hasn't even started advertising Downstate yet.
