  5. No spam, self-promotion, or trolling.

It's a book. Burning it has no forbearance on the religion existing or people's right to practice it. This is Sweden showing the hypocrisy of Islam. Fair play to them. If they were outraged about burning the Quran, they should be outraged about burning the bible. These outraged muslim immigrants to Sweden shouldn't be moving to the western world if they behave and react this way. It is, however, an asshole move to intentionally disrespect a ethnicity or religion. Ultra cringe.
