I agree that Jone’s idea was a stupid publicity stunt, although my real objection was that he was subjugating 9/11 to his own political message.
I have no doubt his disregard for the Koran could put our troops in additional danger, but really didn’t care — that’s what the troops are there for, to defend our freedoms.
And while I have no desire to change my actions to submit to Islamist sensibilities, I also am not looking for useless provocations like mass-burning Korans after a 2-week publicity tour.
Well, I do care about the safety of our troops, along with our freedoms. Our troops are not disposable. They don't need any unnecessary additional risks from idiots in the homeland while they are serving our nation overseas.
