Book burning is sticking your fingers in your ears and covering your ears, sealing yourself off from the world, of other ideas and viewpoints, isolating yourself from growing, learning, improving.

Flag burning is a wake-up call. A time to question why domestic or foreign or both protesters are so upset with your policies.

@dancingtongue Very well put - only the book-burners already have closed their own minds, and want to close everyone else's too.

@ArishMell You're right. I should have said, "isolating yourself and everyone else from growing, learning, improving"
