Thread:Comments:Qur'an-burning pastor jailed after mosque protest barred/Comments from feedback form - "With so much at stake & everyt..."/reply (23)

Really, the article was not clear enough apparently. The issue was the US constitutional right of free speech. The specific instance in this case was a pastor who wanted to demonstrate against a particular religion and was being required to post a bond for police protection in order to do so. The issue of religion seems to distract people from the fundamental right of free speech whether it be about religion or any other topic.
