Republican Gubernatorial candidate Rick Lazio hasnt been shy about his opposition to the proposed Islamic Center and mosque near Ground Zero. Lazio has been the most vocal of the current slate of candidates in expressing any opinion about the project.
But Lazios latest ad about the proposed mosque and Islamic cultural center is ruffling some feathers with New York’s first responders.
Lazio recently released a two-minute video that is a collage of various opinions from people filmed near Ground Zero. The video also features images taken on September 11, 2001, depicting firefighters running into the debris of the former World Trade Center Towers.
The Uniformed Fire Officers Association and the NYPD’s Sergeants Benevolent Association have sent Lazios letters denouncing the use of the 9/11 footage.
