Costa Mesa police step up patrols after incidents at the center, including the burning of two copies of the Koran. The Muslim part of an interfaith display in Mission Viejo was defaced, a group says.
---snip---
It was the second time in a month that a desecrated Koran had been found there, according to a statement on the Costa Mesa mosque's website.
"This deplorable incident is a form of anti-Islamic assault, hate crime and terror campaign against American Muslims," it read. "Even more, it is a great offense against 1.2 billion Muslim followers worldwide because it defiles their holiest and most sacred divine book."

Let me guess who might have done it...

I'm sure the LA Times would report it if someone vandalized a Catholic or Protestant church./sarc/

Wait you forgot, chop off heads, blow up sky scrapers, train, and planes. Make women cover themselves, don't let them go to school, drive, or work. If they don't follow the rules you can but a bullet in the back of their head as the half time entertainment of a soccer match.

It is not illegal to burn a Koran.
Nor is it illegal to use it for toilette paper.

Suicide bombs, the LA Times calls that “expression”. Burn a Koran, now that’s “hate”.

Funny. When it is the Bible that is desecrated, they call it “performance art” and protected speech.
“Roxanne Claxton appears in a performance video at the ‘Made In God’s Image’ exhibition at Glasgow’s Gallery of Modern Art (GOMA). In the piece, she is seen to rip pages out of a bible and then stuff them down her knickers and bra, as well as eating them.” http://www.nme.com/news/various-artists/46489

"Even more, it is a great offense against 1.2 billion Muslim followers worldwide because it defiles their holiest and most sacred divine book."So then why did you burn them yourself? Because the best defense is a great offense.

Sniff, sniff, is that a fishy smell or a media campaign that that is in the air; oh, just the stench of Islam in action.
A child asked, what good is the Quran, the father kindly answered, to start a fire, use when there is no toilet paper, line the birdcage or like newspaper to clean up the bloody mess of a martyr.

Go ahead, burn the US Flag all you want, but touch a Koran...
Almost certainly acts carried out by Muslims in order to garner sympathy, play the victim, and incite their fellow Muslims against the infidels. They have done this elsewhere.

When was the last time a bible burning, or any hate crime against Christianity, got front page coverage in any section of the LA Slimes?

Excellent point. They can blow up airplanes all day, and we must search our souls to understand.
But somebody torches a kill-ran, and it’s a tragedy by Shakespeare.
How do the koranimals like a taste of their own intolerant medicine?
