Thank you.
If you are referring to burn a Quran day... the point of the protest is not the thing itself, or the copy of the thing, but the idea that thing represents. So I don't think it's much different, no.Gunboat Diplomat said:Andiferous said:I think of it as something like peeing on a war memorial. No-one and nothing is physically hurt, and maybe you're making a statement. You might not agree with war, but it's just not a respectful thing to do. And it's often just about as effective as that, in the end.
It's a terrible analogy unless it was your personal war memorial. Please avoid using it. If you urinated on a copy of said war memorial or an effigy of one, that would be a better analogy...
