WYLIN

The reverend from Florida who announced that he would be burning Qur'ans on September 11th is today's Asshole of the Day. And here's why.

Terry Jones has another thing coming to him. Ten bucks says that he knew damn well that Pakistan and other countries with Muslim majorities would be ready to attack America at a moment's notice if he went through with his cowardly burning. Ten MORE bucks says that he was using this plot to blackmail the imam into relocating the NYC mosque. [On a side note, who the hell is he to decide what goes down in New York City? You live in freaking Florida. Don't be mad because the only people in your cities are the Kardashian sisters and the cast of the Jersey Shore!] This whole story seems fishy to me, honestly, but I'm glad about the outcome.

FBI officials are saying that if the burning had occurred on 9/11, we would have been in serious danger of a hateful and spiteful attack. What does this mean for the security of our country? Can the NYC mosque show a loving hand towards the angry countries in the Middle East?

Lastly, do I think that the Afghans who yelled "Death to Christians" are justified at all? Absolutely not. In fact, my family is Christian, and though I do not believe many words in the Bible, I found that to be offensive. Any hate of that caliber is scary, unethical, and sad. Those who hate Islam and Muslims hate themselves.

Sleep tight, children, don't let the angry pastors bite.
