Afghan riots over Quran-burning: 2 days, 20 dead

rj I disagree for the simple fact that his actions affect so many other people. Knowing how extreme most Muslims are in the middle east, and knowing that we have troops there and other American civilians there it's outright criminal and irresponsible in my view. His actions are the equivalent of accessory to murder in the sense that although he did not commit the murders himself he set in motion the events that would lead to the murders.

Part of being a moral person is being a responsible person and this mans actions were just outright irresponsible. His actions led to various deaths and the toll continues to rise. There is no justification for what he did amendment rights or not. Afghanistan is not America and do not adhere to nor acknowledge those so called amendment rights. He should have thought very carefully about the consequences of his actions before he burned the Koran, if he wanted to do it so badly he could have done it privately in front of his church lawn and not make an international affair of it. Video taping the event and posting it on youtube was even more stupid.

We are not popular in the middle east and this does not help one iota.
