is not about "fear of burning a book" is the intentions behind it.
he said "this is to demonstrate muslims extremist that we are not going to stand for it" and then he says, all non muslims extremist should understand that this has nothing to do with them and should join us into burning their book.You are out to piss everyone off, and hide behind your own interpretation of what "god would have wanted", this guy is a loony, in fact his actions only demonstrate that he is an extremist himself.
And now, by canceling it, the world's biggest coward.
Religion, now more than ever is a sensitive issue and most likely an excuse to fight over who has it right, and in these times, and on that specific date... come on..

It doesn't matter if you have the freedom to burn a book. The question you have to ask is, "why burn it?"
The answer is that they enjoy instigating. It's the real-life, far more serious version of an Internet troll.

I'm not surprised that guys like Terry Jones exist - I'm pretty sure that he's representative of a great many people, who all have a similar low degree of intellectual prowess and an axe to grind.
However, I am surprised that this story's attracted such a huge amount of coverage from the international media .. part of me thinks that spreading his message constitutes the bigger crime.

Honestly, why do people give a shit? it's just a bunch of paper, which should be recycled in the trash. It's not the original and there are plenty of copies. Plus it's all filled with religious lies like every religion built upon the same lie.

the funny thing is that this was never about religion. it was about governments, american and isreali governments staging an act. it was never a christian or muslim issue. just governments wanting to get more money.
- Curious to hear who you think stood to profit from this. I'd argue it was more about posturing.Gucci

Can't we just burn equal amounts of religious texts at the same time? I'm a firm believer in impartial actions. For the atheists you could always throw in some money.
:P

I wish the media could report things accurately, you know like..
"Good evening. Some asshole in Florida is being retarded. We're just going to ignore his sorry, little drama queen shit and focus on some actual news. And now, Jane with the weather and traffic..."

From the NY Times comments on the media frenzy of this fucking retard hick:
"As a working journalist, I know that it is pretty rare for such a small story to gain so much media attention without a big publicity push behind it. The questions I would like to see answered are what organization provided the PR and who paid for it? "
Exact-a-fucking-lutely. Or as the good doctor Bombay said above, "Election is coming up, better start manufacturing more wedge issues."
Follow the money, always.
