I’ve just about had enough of this. Burning the book is a silly stunt. But threatening violence because a citizen of the US is exercising his constitutional right is utter nonsense.

So how about this...the sideshow preacher is going to burn the book, and if one American is harmed because he did so, we will kick every Muslim butt we can find.

I ask again, where are the so-called moderate Muslims telling the violent fringe not to overreact? Why do the Muslims insist, time after time, on taking the moral low ground? If the response had been more along the lines of “Hey, this is really insulting to a lot of people, but go ahead and make a fool of yourself if you think burning one book makes some kind of profound statement”, then he probably would not have bothered, or if he did, there would be a bit of sympathy for the Muslims and none of the press-induced hysteria.

You will never see them because they don't exist.
