Funny, the preacher used the argument of his "freedom of speech".

We have a moral responsibility to act reasonably. We are at war in an Islamic nation. When you know that your actions will have severe international consequences, and potentially put our military in greater danger than they already are, I believe you have a moral obligation to behave in a reasonable manner. Burning a religious book, ANY religious book, is not a reasonable act. It's disrespectful, and worse, it incites an emotional response.

So although you may have a right to freedom of speech, you also have a moral responsibility to use it responsibly.

I think you'll find that most reasonable people think that this preacher acted irresponsibly. I don't think you'll find many people buying your logic.
