Looks like the Temecula Valley Islamic Center protest was a bust for the bigots. While they seemed to have managed a small crowd (based on the photos) they were outnumbered by supporters:

A small group of protesters took over a patch of grass across from the Islamic Center of Temecula Valley on Friday for a vocal but relatively tame protest against a proposed mosque, though they were greatly outnumbered by supporters from area churches who were there to support the Islamic Center.

The rally was held during the Islamic Center’s Friday prayers and, at the urging of organizers, a few protesters brought their dogs, which many Muslims would consider an insult.

“This is America. This is a Christian country, this is not a Muslim country,” said Zorina Bennett, 50, of Temecula, one of about 20 who attended the anti-mosque rally. “They are known terrorists. Read the Koran. They are trained to kill people from the time they’re in their youth.”

Bennett took her dog Meadow to the protest, knowing that many Muslims believe that the saliva of dogs is impure.

Leaders of the Temecula Islamic Center, operating in an industrial area of the southwest Riverside County city, said they have been dismayed by some of the allegations and objections to the new mosque because the organization has been in the city for more than a decade without incident.

But on Friday, they said, they were heartened by the strong show of support from people of all faiths and beliefs.

“This is much better than I could have even expected. It helps show that we are part of this community, that we belong here,” said Hadi Nael, chairman of the Temecula Islamic Center.
