Shelly Silver: Ground Zero Mosque Developers Should Find New Location

Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver called Tuesday for the developers of the mosque near Ground Zero to find a new, less controversial location.

Silver, who represents the area, said there�s no question the community center project is protected by the Constitution, but said �the sponsors should take into very serious consideration the kind of turmoil� felt by families of 9/11 victims.

�They should find a suitable place that won�t cause the same controversy,� Silver said during a press conference with Gov. Paterson.

�The sponsors ought to consider the circumstances and ought to say, let�s see if we can find someplace suitable.�
