Can I point out one observation? You might see it as minor, but "those Muslims" are your fellow citizens. Born and raised in the United States, like you. Doesn't the constitution, give them the right to freedom of religion or assembly?
By the attitudes being represented on ATS, I wouldn't be surprised if a majority of American members want their Muslims citizens to wear black coats and stitch little yellow crescent moon on them Yes, that is a Nazi reference because, after all, the Nazi's started off by burning books too.

Being miserable and treating other people like dirt is every New Yorker's God-given right.
Kill disbelievers wherever you find them. If they attack you, then kil them. Such is the reward of disbelievers. (But if they desist in their unbelief, then don't kill them.), 2:191-2 Jews are the greediest of all humankind. They'd like to live 1000 years. But they are going to hell. 2:96

I get it. True freedom always offends someone. Either you do or you don't believe in the right to free speech/expression. There is no kinda..

Blahh blahh blahh, we are both dogs and the fleas come with the dog.
Our founders knew full well what freedom of speech would entail. The good and the bad. Freedom is freedom regardless if it hurts your feelings.
This isn't about freedom of speech, it's about freedom to be a hateful jerk, and piss people off.

Proto, I've been thinking about this for a couple of days now. I apologize if I've missed this in your thread, but I didn't see it.
The person I'd like to interview in this matter is the postman for this preacher's home and the church addresses. This guy may just be smarter than most are giving him credit for. I'd be willing to bet his mailboxes have been full of donations from many angry Americans, who did support his plans.
Purely speculation, but it works for Al and Jesse!

I'm fully aware of this fact. This is America and they are Americans now. So now that Muslims live here all of the sudden they are off limits from getting their book burned? We are supposed to conform and appease them like they are better than everyone else? Are they immune to freedom of expression from those who appose them in a lawful fashion ? NO!
