I'm generally a libertarian. If some rocker wants to smash his $20,000 guitar...let him do so. If some violinist wants to smash his Stradivarius violin...let him do so. If some schmoe wants to burn his copy of a book, let him do so. As long as nobody is harmed, I should not have veto power over what others do with their property.
The urge to make others do what we think they ought to do is a more serious danger to life and liberty than some bozo burning a copy of a book.
