SARAH PALIN PING LIST "ping"

Book burning is antithetical to American ideals. People have a constitutional right to burn a Koran if they want to, but doing so is insensitive and an unnecessary provocation – much like building a mosque at Ground Zero.

As far as I’m concerned if you want to burn the Koran with your followers do it inside the privacy of your own home and don’t publicize it, similar to your next door neighbor smoking a joint in his or her own home should not be prosecuted or persecuted either.
They've already been doing that for centuries. They also burn Churches and Christians. So what can they do they aren't already doing?
Further, Palin is the mother of a soldier who served in the Middle East and recognizes danger for American soldiers who are protecting us from radical elements around the world.
I don't care about the Koran, but people should NOT be able to put a Crucifix in urine!
Wow. You think all those Christians in Saudi Arabia might be in danger now?
It is about freedom, the MSM want to make it about Islam....
They have the right to do it, but is it the right thing to do?
Funny how these mirror image issues got the idiots on both sides to jump to the “if you say anything against it you are against the 1st Amendment” fallacy.
I heard Pastor Jones on the Hannity show today and it sounds like he’s going to back down from the Koran burning.
I agree with Palin.
Unless he stole the book, he can burn it if he wants to.
If you bothered to read the article, you would find she agrees - they have the right to burn it, she just doesn't think they should.
American soldiers are in more danger under Obama then they are because of a book burning...
Good one!
I do too. Keep one around. Ya never know when you’ll run out of toilet paper!
I thought you exiled yourself, pissant! But to answer your smartass remark, there are Christians living in Muslim countries such as Pakistan and Indonesia, and yes, I think this does put them in more danger. Christians are already martyred in these countries on a regular basis, and this has the potential to fan those flames.
I agree. A bad tactic, but he's making people think about "tolerance" has become a one way street.
My question to American muslims: How come you don't send Muslim missionaries to Saudi and Egypt and Iran and Afghanistan and Pakistan to explain to them that "Islam is peaceful?"
Bibles/Torahs confiscated in Islamic countries tend to meet the same fate as well. Also, try wearing a cross/Crucifix in Saudi and see how far you get. If you are female it is a lot worse. In short, Islam is simply a gutter religion, not compatible with other beliefs systems. At least the US has a 200 year start, but with all this Islamic pandering, who knows our culture of freedom will last. Muslims are free to worship, but would be dhimmis are free to ridicule.
And if a stupid book burning brings America to her knees to appease the enemy we are in deep trouble
So never do anything to offend muslims anywhere because they might get mad?
This is in essence, precisely what you are saying.
