If You Burn It They Will Come

The loons, the media, the gawkers, the fools will gather. It is New York City after all. Pay attention to the audio here. That's the chilling message.



Once again we have the mindless chanting of the drones. Shouting slogans repeatedly to drown out the reality has become the norm.

"Why did you do it?" Because this is America and he can express his opinion either verbally or symbolically. Would there have been such reactions if he had been torching a Bible, a Torah, a flag, or a copy of Huckleberry Finn?

The comparison from the one mindless shouter to Nazi German book-burning is demonstrative of the vapidity of the arguments. The man burns his own private property, denying no one in America access to the ramblings of a 12th century nut-job with four wives and a fetish for dominance. If anyone in that crowd wanted a Koran, I would bet there were two or three bookstores within a short walk of that scene where the book could be purchased for reading, cherishing, burning or replacing the Sears catalog in the little shack out back.

Note the NYPD performance. When they apparently are apprehending the man in the early minutes, they merely escort him from the hostile crowd and by the end of the video they are no longer in the picture as he strolls like the Pied Piper of Hamlin across the street leading a pack of media rats out of the area.

Last I heard, the guy was a 6th/7th-century nutjob. (571 AD - 631 AD)
