.
1/15/12, "A Muslim Brotherhood Mega-Mosque Fight Grows in Brookyn," Atlas Shrugs, Pamela Geller

"Here is the latest on the Muslim Brotherhood mega-mosque going up on a quiet, residential street in Brooklyn. The battle to maintain the integrity of the residential, tree-lined street in Sheepshead Bay moves forward.

The legal process is lengthy, and the Bay People need funds to carry on the fight. They are prepapred to file an Article 78 proceeding and/or to sue NYC for damages in case of an adverse ruling. Further contributions to the cause can be made online via PayPal (go here) or by sending a check or money order payable to: BayPeople Inc. 1421 Sheepshead Bay Rd. Post Mail Box 288 Brooklyn, New York 11235.

Write to an elected official. Go here for a full list and voice your opposition to the proposed mosque construction. They need our help. If you have questions, you can contact the good folks fighting this battle at info@baypeople.org. And check their website for the latest updates. Join them on Facebook.

  • "This fight is far from over and we, the homeowners and residents of this community, will employ every possible avenue to ensure that this peaceful and quiet residential street remains just that-RESIDENTIAL."
  • Elected officials and Community Board 15 have dismissed our quality of life concerns for "political correctness." The proposed construction encroaches on our rights to privacy, health, safety and is an intrusive, unreasonable interference with the use and enjoyment of our properties. Religion cannot and will not be an excuse for zoning violations and inappropriate development. Bay People is a voice for thousands of property owners and residents of Sheepshead Bay who are simply trying to preserve their quiet residential existence, protect their property values, and peace of mind.""
