To the editor: As a political scientist somewhat familiar with constitutional rights, I had briefly sparred with my unabashed liberal friend via e-mail that building a mosque near Ground Zero — although constitutional and therefore legal — was not the proper path to pursue. He dismissed my argument for its divisiveness, absolute insensitivity and questionable motives. It was about rights, not responsibilities, he argued.
