Islam is the religion of peace just like Christianity is the religion of love. (Sarcasm)
The Florida pastor is an attention whore. But for the violent nature of the religion he was trying to provoke, he'd be insignificant even in the local news. He has freedom of speech to burn flags or books as he likes but I wonder if he can be held liable in a civil suit by the relatives of those killed in the attacks? His intent was to provoke a violent response but let others put their lives on the line (instead of, as Zen Badger suggested, going there and letting his god protect him). Just a thought.
None of this speculation should be taken to mean that the violent religion of Islam or the murderers involved aren't responsible.
