bunch of stuff snipped

Personally, I believe they
SHOULD be given free reign and all the publicity they want. All I
ask is
that the faces in the crowd be recorded.


And who would keep these records of the faces in the crowd?

Hm........same folks who do it now, I suppose.

And how would it
be discerned whether the face in the crowd was a book burning
supporter,
just someone that happened by, or someone protesting the book buring
itself?

How do you determine anything that you want to know?

Seems a very slippery slope.

True. It could easily lead to things like public records of court
proceedings, county board meetings, church socials, athletic events,
crimes, fires, etc.

Frankly, if someone wants to burn a book, and
its their's to burn (or read, or give away), then I support their
right to
do so.

Me too. Um......I guess I should have mentioned that, huh?

As stated elsewhere, those owning rare books are unlikely to
incinerate them.

Yeah, that sounds familiar.

It is good to know who the enemy is.

Agreed. But is the enemy the person exercising their First Amendment
rights,
or the person attempting to prohibit that expression?

Well, I guess that depends on where you stand on issues like first
amendment rights.
