Ever since the pastor from Florida attempted to make a public display of burning Korans, the subject of Islam increased on the media and throughout the internet--so it seems. While the idea of burning the Koran in the public wasn't wise in its entirety, anyone has the right to burn whatever book they own--not unless you live in the UK and the US unfortunately. MSN.com reported that six British men were arrested for a video related to burning Korans on 9/11. They were charged with spreading racial hatred. Considering that the UK is suddenly the UM, United Muslims, it is no wonder that Muslims have the lion share of authority--that, and there is the Racial and Religious Act that prohibits so called racial slanderings. I don't know much on the Racial and Religious Act in the UK, but it sounds like a scapegoat maneuver to keep hostile Muslims from going insane to me.
While folks in the UK are banned from burning Korans, we Americans are on the verge of losing our First Amendment right. We can't burn the not-so-holy Koran, yet youngsters on youtube have several videos of the bible being burnt. I'm not asking to get even, but hey...if we can't burn Korans, then we shouldn't burn any important documents at all. Silly, isn't it? I don't support the public book burning, but if a person wants to burn a book in the US, then they have that right to do it. That's all I'm saying.
