Another politician has a different take. Populist on Qur'an Burnings: If They Get Upset, Burn a Hundred More
I like this guy.
A member of the populist Sweden Democrats (SD) has weighed in on the controversial burning of a copy of the Qur’an last weekend, stating that the reaction from Turkey and the Islamic world has been unreasonable.
SD member Richard Jomshof, chairman of the Justice Committee, gave his opinion on the burning of the Qur’an last week in front of the Turkish embassy in Stockholm by Danish anti-Islam activist Rasmus Paludan, claiming the backlash had been exaggerated.
“I don’t think you should do it, but you can do it and if they get upset, then fire up a hundred more,” Jomshof said this week, broadcaster SVT reports.

You do NOT have the right to avoid anything that might disturb you. If you want to live under a dictatorship, well, you can always move. I think most of the rest of us would like to keep Free Speech, thank you very much. Though I have been wrong about so much lately, maybe people do want to live under a dictatorship.
