I am going to go out on a limb and guess that the book-burning community doesn't have a lot of, y'know... books.

Does their town have a bookstore? If so, does it normally stock cases of the Quran? I'm guessing not.

So these bozos had to order a bunch of books so they could burn them.

Aspiring authors take note.

(I wonder what the Amazon rank of the cheapest available edition of the Quran is like lately?)

3. Ah, Boehner probably let them use his laser printer.
A couple real pages, a stack of blank paper, and a burst of spectacular Faux Outrage.

4. Probably not even Quran's........
He's probably burning old hymnals and other worn out books,and telling everyone they are Quran's....

5. The whole thing is so absurd & childish to the far extreme.
Honestly, other than deliberately trying to spread a mindless message of hate, what would be the point of burning books?

7. That is the point. He's deliberately spreading a message of hate.

And racism (the photo on his book is of a black guy, though most Muslims aren't black.)

And he's trying to make a buck off it, too.

"TS and Company is not Jones' only online business---he also sells the book he authored, "Islam is of the Devil", as well as mugs, tee shirts and hats on another website he operates---Islamisofthedevil.com."

8. A member was interviewed on CNN this AM and said they have 160 copies
with a goal of 200 (!)

She said they received copies from all over the world.

Don't underestimate the level of ignorance on this planet.
