To a more sensible person, this admission might ring a bell that such a tantrum is not wise in the first place.

I wonder if this guard will be a permanent fixture around him and his church... or if the guard will return home after the burning.

Right Wing Extreme Pulls Support.....

Press Release: Armed Christian Conservative Group Pulls Support of Burning of Koran

"Right Wing Extreme has pulled support for the International Burning of the Koran day and will not attend the event. After much thought and prayer the organization’s leadership determined this event does not glorify GOD in way that leads the lost to Jesus Christ. “We also believe the liberal media is intentionally using stories such as the burning of the Koran to distract, divide, and enrage the public says the organization’s leadership.

“Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath” James 1:19

For instance, the recent story of Obama’s endorsement of the masque being built at ground zero. Not only does this incite anger, but truly insults and grieves the victims and families of 9/11. The left wing media saturated viewers with this story in an attempt to incite violence, racism, bigotry, and extremism. Right Wing Extreme says it does believe that Islam is not a religion but a cult; however the group is determined to lead the lost to Christ and restore our nation’s constitution.

“ The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” 2 Peter 3:9

Dove World Outreach are our brothers and sisters in Christ. However we ask that they not hold this event for the reason that it may diminish the work of the Holy Spirit to witness to Muslims. America is a nation founded on the bible. Capitalism, our form of government, our laws and our freedoms come directly from the Bible. Sharia law, however is based not on freedom, but totalitarianism. A system that oppresses woman, denies freedom of speech, and basic rights that Americans have fought and died for."

I'm curious how they originally anticipated the Liberal media to play this.

Hey - if it's okay to burn bibles & the National Standard then it should be okay to burn the koran. It's well within their rights.

How about it being ok for a mexican to come to this country illegally and burn our flag in the streets while they protest us?
Thats ok but burning a few comic books is not?
