I for one couldn't give a crap what color a person is who does something like this.

The only double standard I see here is the treatment of Christianity versus the treatment of other religions. As has been mentioned, no one would stand quiet if a Christian teacher burned a Torah. We would be sickened by that and asking if the guy was closet KKK. He'd also be out of a job.

Let's change the scenario a bit. What would be your reaction if a Hasidic sect of Judaism targeted eleven year old kids with scripture, books, etc. What would be your reaction when your own child began bringing it home? Certainly, I would not believe you would burn it. I just think that targeting children is wrong as is burning any scripture, including the Koran.
