This took place at the Masjid Al-Iman off Sunrise Blvd just west of I95 in Ft. Lauderdale.
It has been a radical terror centric mosque for decades, and is where 'shoe bomber' Jose Padilla was radicalized back in 1992.

Editorials / Re: My sitcom Mount Rushmore

We should do something similar for everyone's favorite movies.  Perhaps their Top 10 favorite movies, which must span 5 different genre(you pick), i.e.:

Drama
Scifi
Comedy
Action
Horror
Musical
Biography/Autobiography/True Life Stories
Western
Fantasy
History/Historical Fiction
Mystery/Suspense
Adventure
Holiday (Christmas movie, etc)

Doing this myself, it would take a couple hours to put a comprehensive list together.  I can rattle 10 movies off the top of my head in a minute, but to define my absolute favorite in X number of genre, I would want to put some thought into it.
