Would it make them feel better if we burned some bibles and torahs and dianetics and shit? I’ll even toss a Gospel of the Flying Spaghetti Monster on the fire if everyone will promise to shut the fuck up about ‘holy books’ for 30 minutes.
I mean, if the people who burned it owned the book. I think they are well within their rights.
Yeah, they’re not going to get anywhere with this argument when dealing with countries that value freedom of speech and expression. They can be unhappy about other countries allowing so much freedom, but they can’t alter that fact. It’s not the government burning these books; it’s regular people and that is within their rights.

Free speech is the issue here. I can burn any book I want to. No one has a right to stop me from exercising my rights.
They can be upset, but that is it.
