Do you support the right of this Church to burn Korans? Would you be similarly offended if they were burning copies of the Book of Mormon? Or the NIV? Or the Satanic Bible? Or the Origin of Species?

The big question would be whether burning any of those books would be “dangerous”?

If in fact the only book that is “dangerous” to burn is the Koran, then as Americans it should be our sacred duty to burn them until it was so common an event that nobody would think twice about it. Until we have reached that point, then the Islamists are winning and liberty is the loser.

I deem it unwise.

American law was never intended (well, at least until the modern Rat was invented, with whom I am quite out of sympathy) to ban every single solitary thing that might be unwise. It was never intended to create a rubber room to imprison its citizens.

Bullseye, P-M. This issue is only an issue because our leaders are afraid. Had they left this pastor alone and simply allowed him to have his koran burning, I doubt any other than his local group of attendees would even have known of it.

But everyone from Obama to Petraeus is running away scream that the sky is falling.

They've made it necessary to burn that paper and ink just to make the point that we're not afraid of the mohammedite cultocracy.

It's like Indianapolis cowering in fear at the Rev Jim Jones cult.
