The Danish government said on Friday it was proposing legislation that would make it illegal to burn copies of the Koran in public places, part of the Nordic country's effort to de-escalate tensions with Muslim countries.
If there’s a group of people with a legitimate concern, a government should hear you out and make an assessment.
You as a single person can choose to do whatever you want within reason and what’s permitted by law.
You can continue to misconstrue this further however you like, but burning books is barbaric. We’re past that point as civilized society. But feel free to continue to argue for it behind the veneer of “freedom” or whatever else you can come up with.
Loud concerts are about proximity. I’d definitely say no burning a Bible in front of a church. But if you can be easily ignored by the offended party, then you shouldn’t be stopped.

Yeah should be punished by stoning or something…
Context and words must be hard for you. Sorry to heat that. Would you like a tissue or a shoulder to cry on?
Burning individual instances of a book for artistic or political purposes, or just because you want to, is not barbaric.
Burning all copies of a book to remove it from circulation and prevent the spread of those ideas is barbaric.
Loud concerts are actual form of artistic expression yet there are laws in some cities that prevent loud music past 9/10pm.
Why? Because it bothers people and interferes with their lives. This is no different.
Also, I find it amusing that you think burning a book is an “artistic expression”. What’s next? Taking a shit is an artistic expression?
People do that too.
