No, but this is one incidence when I think the 24-hour news cycle has made this one guy's stupidity much more of an issue than it ever needed to be. He's one guy in a church in Florida. Let him do whatever he wants, but if the news media hadn't decided it was so interesting/newsworthy/controversial, no one outside of his own community need have ever learned of it. Now it is internationally covered, which is just pathetic.
Does he have the right to do it? Yes. But I think he might be better served in his understanding of Islam and indeed his own religion if he read one, instead of burning it. But that wouldn't make him famous, now would it?
