According to Maxine Waters, Africans can burn cities, but one white person cannot burn a book on his/her own private property as a form of political protest.

Don, you are to be awarded points for consistency. Once again, you have managed to dig up the race or ethnicity conflict angle on this story that almost everyone else missed.

It's not that this Koran burning plan in Gainesville doesn't already have an inherent ethnicity/race angle; it's just that you "found" a new one.

Where do you get the idea that there was an ethnic or racial angle to the plan to burn Korans in Gainsville? Did the preacher say something that the media missed? If there had been anything but a religious dimension to it, I'm sure the media whipping up hysteria against it would have mentioned that by now.
