Re: Mosque Burned Down In Missouri
This deplorable act violates American values which place a premium on freedom and respect for all religions. The first amendment of the U.S. constitution guarantees the right to freedom of religion.
Islam is one of the largest and fastest growing religions in the United States. According to several surveys, the U.S. has a population of over 2.5 million Muslims, all of whom have the same rights as any other American.

Muslims are an integral part of our society and play a vital role in all aspects of life in the U.S. We have many Muslims serving in government and in the U.S. armed forces. As stated above, the FBI is investigating the cause of the latest fire.

2.5 million muslims?
In 1996, I came to know that the figure was about 7 Million back then.
Anyway, we appreciate your views on this matter and fully support US constitution and rights given to everyone in it. I hope US govt. catches these domestic local terrorists soon.
