Violence broke out in Denmark with cars and rubbish bins set on fire yesterday after a far-right anti-Islam activist threw a copy of the Koran into the air.
Copenhagen police said 23 people had been arrested last night after officers fired tear gas in clashes with protesters.
Extremist politician Rasmus Paludan - who wants Islam banned from Denmark - had thrown the religion's holy book into the air several times in Noerrebro, an immigrant-heavy district in the Danish capital.
Danish PM Lars Loekke Rasmussen called Paludan's actions a 'meaningless provocation' and urged his countrymen to 'meet him with arguments, not violence'.
Simply throwing a Koran into the air provoked riots?
People definitely need to have discussions about the true nature of Islam.
