Quran Destroyer Randall Terry Dismisses 9/11 Families Concerns About Politicizing Terror Anniversary
As ThinkProgress has noted, some families of 9/11 victims have condemned the politicization of the anniversary of the terror attacks, saying protests related to the proposed Islamic community center near ground zero today “disrespect the memories of our loved ones on this sacred day.” When asked about this by ThinkProgress, Terrry dismissed the victims’ families concerns, saying “sorry” insincerely, and adding that he wouldn’t “let the tail wag the dog:”
Tomorrow, tea party activists will rally on the National Mall for a “Taxpayer March on Washington.” Activist Andrew Beacham, who actually performed the Quran ripping while Terry explained which passages were being desecrated, told ThinkProgress that he has been actively affiliated with both the tea party and the related 9/12 movement
