23. You are missing the point.

No one--least of all me--is denying the protesters' right to condemn Grisham or his actions. Hell, I condemn Grisham's actions as deliberately offensive. However, I still recognize that he has the right to express his views as he sees fit.

In contrast, several here are criticizing Isom's theft of Grisham's Quran as an attempt to stifle political speech.

If you can't (or if you refuse to) see that, then you're not actually involved in the discussion.
