EDIT: ^ Well, that’s good. Lol.

I am a Muslim American, and I can tell you firsthand that there’s no shortage of talk and unrest about this in the Muslim community in the United States. First of all, it’s incredibly disrespectful. I acknowledge that the church has the right to do this under our Constitution; however, the morality of the issue is severely undermined. Secondly, this action will put US troops and the American people in danger. It really will. How do you think Muslims around the world will feel about America after watching Americans on the news burn thousands of copies of their most sacred book? It’s an unmistakable insult, and I personally find it astonishing and belittling that this church would do such a thing to the people of my religion.

And most importantly of all, do they not realize who they’re acting like? Them, with their blind hatred and their acts of unwarranted animosity. They’re behaving just like al-Qaeda. And frankly, it’s disturbing.
