That's an easy take.

Let's play with the idea. It's legal to burn photographs.

Now imagine if your child died in a horrible way. Someone then comes up to you and burns a photograph of your child in front of you. It's perfectly legal, but you'd probably be less cool about it. But hey, perhaps this isn't a country for you? No, it's obviously a shitty thing to do because it's a deliberate action to trigger to you. (Shit like that has actually happened.)

The book burning idiots could go buy as many Korans as they like and have a mighty bonfire in their backyard and no one would bat an eye, but that's not what they do. They go in front of the embassies of the countries that they want to provoke, call the press for coverage and post it everywhere so people can see how brave and free they are, hiding in the safety of free speech.

If they actually have anything to say to the religious leaders, they should go fucking say it to them. They don't. Because they know there'd be very real consequences if they did it in Iran. They aren't brave enough to do that.

I don't give a shit about the importance of religion or bonfires, but I am pissed that these idiots are abusing the freedom of speech to spread hatred. They don't want to burn books because they like fire. They do these "protests" because they're racist assholes who want Muslims to feel unwelcome.

With freedom comes a responsibility. They aren't being responsible with it.
