But the problem is with the question. Very few question the right for someone to build a mosque there.
A disturbing amount do though and that's to whom I was referring.

Anyway... The people who don't think they have the right to build it and the very very vocal critics who want to take away the right or want the government to step in to stop it despite the group having the right to build (not quite sure how that works but....) are much different than the more moderate group saying along the lines of "Well... I kinda wish they'd pick a different site but they have a right to do it so.. oh well. It doesn't really effect me anyway". However, that entire spectrum of views would get lumped together in that 68% you cite making it misleading depending on how one tries to use that poll to prove their point.
