Well, Florida can have wildfires and if that is the concern, then the city is right in preventing the book burning. I am not aware that this year fires have been a concern (although I'm not there, so mebbe it is....?).
Bottom line is, if you disapprove of this group of wingnuts burning the Koran (as I do) then write letters, organize a counter-protest, or suck it up. Shutting down offensive free speech is not the American way.
BTW, I'm not a christian but my family bible is precious to me. I'd expect this book is to most christians, and I think it's bullshit to say no one would care if a bunch of non-christians had a highly-publicized bible burning.
