To me the interesting, and unknowable, question is why the fact that she likely didn't burn the Koran is so prominent. Because it sort of parallels the fuck nuts that feel it was okay to shoot the kid in Ferguson because he stole a pack of cigarettes. Both "crimes" shouldn't be a death sentence with no need of a trial.
And why it is different that no one (other than people with clearly unacceptable racist feelings) is saying "let's take a step back and think of whether it's okay that racially biased cops shoot kids where they shouldn't," whereas there seems to be a portion of muslims that think, "well if she had burned the holy book....." GGG you know more than us about the Middle East, would the protests be lesser if she had?
