LOL. Of course, I don't advocate for burning things just to burn things.

I just don't think that burning your own books should be considered a crime.

Burning stuff is a classic protest move though, and that shouldn't be restricted either - within safety limits of course; i.e. Don't leave your burning flag, book, bra, whatever where it might destroy unrelated stuff.
