It's Crazy Day in D.C.

Of course, every day is crazy day in D.C. but this one promises more crazy than usual with a radical Muslim protesting at the White House and calling for Sharia law in America, while a crazy preacher plans a counter protest:
Pastor Terry Jones, who famously threatened and later gave up on plans to host “International Burn the Koran Day,” will counter radical British Muslim cleric Anjem Choudary’s Thursday protest in front of the White House.

Jones told The Daily Caller he expects 1,000 of his supporters to show up. He also said he doesn’t plan to burn anything, including the Koran, or carry or show any pictures of the Muslim prophet Mohammed. Illustrating Mohammed is considered by many Muslims to be insulting and offensive. Jones does plan, however, to attempt to engage Choudary in debate.

“The purpose of us going there is very clear: we are not going there to burn the Koran or display pictures of Mohammed,” Jones said in a phone interview. “What we are trying to address is the issue of Sharia law and the issue of the so-called moderate Muslim here in America. Those are our two issues that, if we have the chance, we will be publicly speaking on.”
I'm not sure Terry Jones is the best spokesman we could have for sanity in the law. The whole thing will be little more than a made-for-TV spectacle.

It could actually be good for Jones to show up since the mainstream media will be looking for ways to ignore the radical Muslims who show up at the White House, but the presence of Jones might make the event a little more difficult to ignore.
