I didn’t argue for either way. I’m just pointing out the importance of this specific book and that obviously we should be aware of potential consequences. It certainly sucks that some people take their religion so seriously to injure or kill other people, but it’s really not unexpected nor unprecedented.
So if Sweden does allow the burning, which does have it’s pros and cons, then they have to consider the ramification they could face. That of course should include taking the security of their embassies in extreme religious countries into consideration. Not sure what they did in that regard, but it certainly wasn’t enough.
It’s very easy to sit behind anonymity and argue for the importance of allowing such freedom of expression when we aren’t the ones put in danger because of it.
