Anyone watching that is going to see the ugly ignoraces of his actions. Pastor Jones has said he's never read the Qu'ran, and when the protested in Afghanistan because of this event, he said "this speaks to the true nature of Islam."
I completely agree with this. Isn't America supposed to be a Western country with freedom of speech? What happened to those who do not sin may cast the first stone? I'm pretty sure that Pastor would have sinned so what makes him so riotous? I am personally offended by his talk of burning the Qu'ran and I'm Christian. Seriously, something needs to be done, because lives will be at stake here. This is not the way to deal with extremists.
