It’s just that it means something to some people. What do you call me if I do anything like that with an original disc from Elvis Presley? You will call me something right?
 
And it’s a cultural element too. I don’t believe in Voodoo. But I won’t do any of these things to a voodoo idol.

"The Lord of the Rings" has deep meaning to millions of people, yet no one holds that book to the particular standard to which all those holey books are held.

People being offended by the burning of a holey book are simply too fucking thin skinned.

Not everyone can have my stoic approach toward this Neo-Nazi man. Some will feel insulted. Some will even use such events to put fuel on the fire. So my position stands Smile

And many will look at what was done, shrug their shoulders and ask, "So the fuck what?"
