Historically, violence and book burning go hand in hand. Book burning is often a precursor to violence.

If you want to complain about the way they exercise their rights, then you have that right. The publicity is probably what they are looking for. It ensures that a lot of people know how outraged they are.

History says otherwise. Negative publicity is a powerful deterrent to book burning. What the book burners would love is for people to just sit on their hands.

I'd rather stop them before they come after my copies. Because by the time they are strong enough to come for my copies, there won't be a thing I could do to stop them.
