Hmmm, lets say I buy an American flag, burn it in the name of freedom and broadcast it live on the internet,
What do you think will happen to me?

To be blatant about this, Terry Jones had to make a spectacle out of the burning of the Quran by involving the media. He did this with intent that it would reach the afghan people. He definitely had the prior knowledge of what his actions would have entailed.

Beg your pardon...Afghans? That few animals and their supporters constitutes the entire nation?
So if i was robbed at gunpoint can I claim Americans are a bunch of a theives?
It will get us nowhere when we generalize and worse to blame entire nation for the crime of the nutjobs few, whom must be subjected to the rule of law for justice to be served. Words cannot kill, but actions does, and in this case, those guilty had stupidly murdered innocents and no religion supports murder of innocents, not in our modern times..

You are perfectly free to say that. You should thank a veteran.
Are you joking? Haven't you thought of the uprising it would cause with the neo nazi community as well christian extremist who would see this notion as a threat to their own religion and way of life. You think that that muslim community can be the only people who can commit crime in the name of religion. Wow not thoroughly though out aye?edit on 3-4-2011 by nahsik because: (no reason given)

Something tells me - he didn't do no such thing - is there any evidence or is it propaganda - are they using this to stir things up?
