Jail for Koran-burning pastor 
April 23, 2011 - 2:28PM 
The US pastor whose burning of a Koran sparked deadly violence in Afghanistan 
has been briefly jailed in a heavily Islamic suburb after a court banned his 
protest outside a mosque.

A judge jailed pastor Terry Jones of Gainesville, Florida, and his associate, 
Wayne Sapp, after a court found their planned protest outside the Islamic 
Centre of America in Dearborn, Michigan, could lead to violence.

During his court appearance, Jones argued the Koran promotes terrorist 
activities around the world.

He also insisted his right to protest against Islam was protected by the First 
Amendment to the US Constitution.

The First Amendment does us no good if it confines us to saying what is 
popular, he said.

But Dearborn Police Chief Ronald Haddad testified that his department had 
received information about serious threats made against Jones from residents, 
arguing that his protest could lead to violence if allowed.

Prosecutor Robert Moran argued the protest had nothing to do with the First 
Amendment and at stake were security and peace in the community.

In the end, the jury sided with the prosecution and Judge Mark Somers set bond 
at the symbolic amount of $1 each for the two pastors, which they initially 
refused to pay.

Following their refusal, both were escorted to jail.

But local media reported both men changed their minds after spending about an 
hour behind bars and posted the $1 bond.

Jones and Sapp made international headlines after their ceremonial trial and 
execution of the Koran by burning led to deadly protests in Afghanistan.

Last month's Koran burning unleashed protests across Afghanistan, some of which 
were violent.

Seven UN staff were killed during one protest in the northern city of 
Mazar-i-Sharif on April 1.

Hehehe konyolnya, si pastor itu dipenjara cuma krn mau demo doang, demonya 
aja belum dikasih ijin. Jadi si pastor dihukum sebelum si pastor melakukan apa2.

Ini baru di pengadilan dhimmi yg terkencing2 di depan orang Islam. Kalo ada 
pengdilan shariah, hehehe ga usah melakukan apa2 selain ga mau masuk Islam 
aja berarti ngelawan Islam dan hrs dihukum.
