Florida Pastor Wants to Commemorate 9/11 By Burning Quran

Anti-Muslim sentiments sure have been reaching new heights lately. First we
have ire over a proposed mosque being built close to Ground Zero, and
now some pastor in Florida by the name of Terry Jones wants to "commemorate" the upcoming anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center by burning copies of the Quran. I'd hate to see how he celebrates the Fourth of July -- instead of lighting sparklers, he probably goes around punching British people in the face.
Jones wants to burn hundreds of copies of the Quran on September 11th, which has understandably caught the attention of numerous protesters. The church is only comprised of 50 people, and they've very quickly become vastly outnumbered by people opposed to the proposed book burning. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, General David Petraeus, and talking bobblehead Angelina Jolie are among the protesters.
The funny thing is that this is a classic trolling move on Jones's part. His church is likely small and unremarkable, but both it and him have gotten a ton of press over this stunt. Even though it's negative attention, the spotlight has nonetheless become fixated on him, and religious zealots and crazy conservatives will likely enjoy the flavor of crazy he's serving.
What do you think about Pastor Jones's proposed Quran burning to commemorate 9/11?

He grew out his mustache to show how serious he is
