Does this mean that since we blow up a lot of innocent people in Iraq, Muslims in this country should burn Bibles (or, better yet, the Constitution) in protest? When does this cycle end?
Yes, it is perfectly legal to protest/demonstate/do whatever as long as it doesn't endanger other people. As long as it is legal, people can do whatever the fuck they want.

Intentionally pissing off something like 1/3 of the world's population isn't a very good idea and is what caused 9/11 to happen in the first place. If you don't think that American foreign policy didn't have a direct hand in causing 9/11, then you're high on PCP. I mean hell, didn't Petraeus (sp?) come out a couple days ago and flat out said that if people burn Korans that it'll get American troops killed?
We are at war. American troops will get killed. If the people fighting America over in afgan-town are paying attention to anything, it's warfare related, not what the fuck-knuckles at fox news are spewing.

All conservatives do is bitch about how huge and powerful the government is. However, as soon as people you don't like do something you don't do, you're all of a sudden on the government's back screaming about how they refuse to take action.
I bitch when the government is X size and does NOT handle X responsibilities. I think it's too big, sure, but there's nothing to be done about that, so at the very least it needs to chew what it bites off.

Are you mouthbreathers seriously proposing giving the government power to tell people what they can do on their land?
No, no one is proposing that.

Also, the Catholic church refused to help Jews (and maybe even helped funnel Nazis to South America) during WWII and I bet there's a Catholic Church four blocks away from a bagel shop or some shit. Where's your whole "sacred ground" bullshit then? What about Catholic churches near playgrounds or worse yet, catholic schools? If we're going to make sweeping generalizations that since a couple muslims flew a plane into a building, they're all out to kill us, the institutionalized hiding and squelching child molestation charges in Catholic Churches makes every catholic a pedophile.
Ok, the mosque is a dick move, sure. But it's totally legal. No TRUE american can bitch about it's legality, just its etiquette and classiness.

Oh wait, we can't do that, because catholics have rights in America, because they're:
1) Christian
2) White
Catholics in America are second-class Christians, at best.
