Well I know what I am thinking and that is so you are burning some pieces of paper with words on them. What's that going to do but pollute the air and not even begin to get rid of any social problems related to these words.

You will not pick me for best answer, that's for sure.
While a crude demonstration of anti-hate sentiment, it is still a symbolic gesture.
Your avatar, if it is you, looks like someone who likes ancient European warriors, therefore I think you are Eurocentric which leads me to believe you are highly nationalistic and therefore quite right-wing. You would probably see this demonstration as being politically correct and against free speech (when in fact it is an example of free speech). You would therefore probably think of it as a useless demonstration and have contempt for it. Which leads me to think that I would disagree with your viewpoint and not win the 10 points!

Since burning is a form of cleansing,the seem to be words that represent hate.I found the best way to get rid of hatred is to show by doing,not symbolizing.

First thought that comes to mind is that it is a nice thought, but does nothing to end hate in any way.

Hate should be discouraged in education.
