en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010_Qur'an-burning_controversy Protester Duncan Philp of the Wyoming Tyranny Response Team obtained a permit to protest outside the Wyoming State Capitol from 11:00 to 13:00 on September 11. He expressed the intent to set a Qur'an on fire at noon, or, if the public burning was not permitted, to tear up the Koran and move the pieces in a garbage can to a private business to be burned. Members of the local Unitarian Universalist Church planned a counter-protest.[79][80][81] However, at the protest the group, describing the exercise as a test of free speech, announced that they would not desecrate or burn the Koran on state property.[82]
