recent news photos of Christ Community Church in Alamogordo, N.M., burning copies of "Harry Potter" and Shakespeare

Did Christ Community Church in Alamogordo, N.M. sieze anyone else's books and burn them? Did it take the books from the public library and burn them? If the church only burned copied which it owned, how is that worse than burning a flag?

If the church made no effort to destroy all or even a significant number of copies of the books(bet your last dollar on that), expressing fear of a mere media event is over-the-top political correctness.

Great points! We're supposed to be all up in arms because a few yahoos burned their own copies of books? Oooh, scary.
