Republican Congressmember Peter King of New York is coming under criticism for saying there are too many mosques in the United States. King made the comment in a taped interview with the newspaper Politico.

Rep. Peter King: “Unfortunately, we have too many mosques in this country. There’s too many people who are sympathetic to radical Islam. We should be looking at them more carefully. We should be finding out how we can infiltrate. We should be much more aggressive in law enforcement.”
