I'm not twisting anything; I'm pretty sure everyone here is aware that the context behind that survey being the proposed mosque near the World Trade Center.

That point doesn't at all change the fact that 48% of respondents replied that Muslims should be denied their constitutional right to build a place of worship at a location where other religions would be permitted to do so. I can understand the argument that it's culturally insensitive to build a mosque there, but by no means should it be banned so long as the plan satisfies all NYC building codes (which it does).
