Following my last post I can across this fairly soon after. It's a clearer cut case of defamation. The issue here is that they man displyed a sign that would be insulting to others. It's one thing to say that one does not believe that the Qur'an is the word of God and therefore it is not sacred. It is another to advocate flushing it down a loo. The guy's stated objective [post hoc] of exalting the Bible is not really achieved by the sign he put up. But credit where it is due, once it was made apparent to him just what the effect of his actions were in terms of how it was perceived by Muslims, he did repent of his action.
