Home » Media » Press Center » Regarding the recent Koran burning in Florida, do you believe that Pastor Terry Jones is either morally or legally culpable?
Those radical idiots are burning US flags every day! Maybe that crazy guy in Florida should keep on burning Koran's until the flag burners finish killing each other.
We should cut off Foreign Aid to any country that allows the burning of our flag. They should do the same to us any time someone in the US burns a Koran.
(The not so)Reverend Jones burned the Quran he is both morally and legally responsible for that act alone. If the book he burned was bought and paid for by him it is his to do with as he desires. If the actual burning was done on property owned by him or with the permission of the property owner there shouldn't be any felony arson problems and if it was done, as it was, during a time when seasonal burnings are done without the need of burn permits it appears no laws were broken vis a vis the actual burning.
Was it moral to burn a book, any book? Your call.
However, without a doubt tantrums resulting in murder are the sole responsibility, legally and morally, of the barbarians committing those crimes. Whether Rev. Jones knew or should have known is immaterial. He didn't commit the barbarous acts and civilized people don't murder nonchristians when Islamists or others burn Bibles.
we haven't killed enough of them yet! Too bad, so sad but we won WWII NOT because we were 'better' or 'right' or even because we had 'God on our side'. THERE ARE NO 'GOOD' WARS. We won because we killed every man who wanted to kill or be killed for his country. We killed a bunch of other people besides who didn't want to kill or be killed for their country, old men, women and children. When we stopped killing people the one's who were left didn't want to kill or be killed. They wanted to live and they didn't care who was in charge. When we kill enough of these people they will give us Qur'ans to burn! It's that or...
You're right. Wouldn't it be a shame if those middle-eastern whacko's stopped acting like our best friends, stopped sending us millions in Aid money, stopped defending our country for us, and stopped selling us oil at such low prices, all because a few Korans got burned? If they don't like what one person in Florida does we should immediately restrict the Constitutional Rights of all Americans, and tell our president to stoop much lower when he kisses their butts (again).
I would encourage people to consider the base line, a Minister burned a book and a mob murdered 20 people in response cutting off two heads of the victims. Burning a book justifies killing 20 people, what are you thinking? To suggest that the Pastor did not have a right to burn a book within the Sovereign borders of the USA is to justify 9-11. Or any terrorist act perpetrated by some unperceivable slight of Islam, and Americans commit punishable acts by Shariah Law daily. This Pastor did excatly the right thing, better we confront the issue now than ten years down the road when Obama and a Military that has gone native lose or undermine all perspective on American liberties.

Hmmm, someone burns a koran here and thousands of muslims over there riot and kill each other. Sounds like a strategy to me.
