I have no problem with him destroying a 60k book if he bought it. It is stupid however. And I always am amused by people who do stuff like this being classified as “artists”

I can see it coming...

Old Mohammad had a farm, e-i-e-i-o. And on his farm he had a fatwa, e-i-e-i-o. A fatwa here, a fatwa there, here a fatwa...

Old Mohammad had a farm e-i-e-i-o.

Weird. I was almost sure that he was going to get praised here. Quite a lot of people on FR are for desecrating and destroying Korans.
