Sharpening my point

Let me try to sharpen my point a bit. I was not trying to debate whether there are legitimate zoning issues prompting people to oppose this mosque. I know a lot of people who live in the Leigus Road area and they are some of the finest folks I've met in my time in this town. My instinct is to assume that opponents of this mosque are doing so out of legitimate concerns. But to accuse others who feel differently of only doing so because they live in another section of town is to accuse them of hypocrisy. I don't think that is fair either.
I could see how some might take my point about mosques and churches v. trash plants as inflaming the issue. It was not my intent. I just was trying to point out that even if you oppose the mosque you have to admit there are worse things that could end up in your neighorhood.
As far as the Record-Journal being sensational. Please be more specific. We publish every day of the year, except Christmas. Please point out the specific sensational content you object to and I'll be happy to address.
I realize mosque opponents feel as though some have unfairly labeled them with a broad brush. It doesn't help to do the same thing to those who disagree or the local newspaper.
