Default Supreme Court Justice Breyer says burning Koran may not be 1st Amendment protected.

In this country you can burn the American Flag and the Supreme Court says that is your Constitutional 1st Amendment right.

In this country you can burn the Bible and the Supreme Court says that is your Constitutional 1st Amendment right.

But now Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer says that the burning of a Koran may not be your Constitutional 1st Amendment right.

Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer says your right to burn a Koran is mitigated by the violence that this act could generate. Because it would enrage Muslims he likens it to shouting "Fire" in a theater and the chaos that might result.

Why don't we just enact Sharia law now and get it over with.

I'm stunned by this logic. What the Justice has said is that my neighbor is free to burn the Bible and our flag in his front yard in clear sight of the neighborhood, however, if I choose to burn the Koran I can be thrown in jail for inciting him to violence.

Using the judge's logic, flag and Bible burning should be responded to with a massive reaction that results in the loss of Muslim life and the destruction of Muslim property. Then these actions, too, would be equated to 'shouting in a crowed theater'. I do not believe that we should either restrict freedom of speech nor legitimize violence.

He believes the US Constitution is a "living document" to be interpreted in a dynamic manner for any number of various human situations. It is the same philosophy Obama and other Progressives believe.
