Teen girl arrested for burning Koran

She's an American citizen living in Oregon, not Iran or some batshit crazy religious country like that.

It has just come to my attention that I said "Oregon", when in fact the girl is British, this is because I was reading another news article about an Oregon teen who tried to blow up a holiday celebration while writing this article, I apologize.

Was going to say I would doubt she would get arrested in the USA because there have been plenty of groups and people that have burnt the Bible many times and nothing ever transpired over that so why should they about a Koran burning? All that matters is that you have to treat all religious groups the same and don't pander/favor one over the other and they all should be treated fairly/equally.
