Poll question: If a Quran burns on private property and no media cover the event, does it still make waves?
If a Quran is burned on private property and no media cover the event, does it still cause an international incident?

(there wasn't room for that in the subject line)

1. Other....
Because it's already made waves, and revealed American's feelings which aren't monolithic, but divided enough to have served all sides.

3. Other: it depends on who finds out when and disseminates the info.
If the world's Muslims find out later, they will still be upset. It would be like a tree falling in the forest that no one heard, but that crushed a popular or historically-important structure.

4. It makes smoke. And I'm willing to bet there would be 50 people there
out of 50 with cameras on their cell phones. We don't need Fox for sure.
