Good point, a flag is a bit different. Burning a Bible would be more analogous to burning a Koran. But Moslems like to burn USA flags and they don't seem to be worried about giving offence, which is their aim.

We could rate violent tendencies by burning flags, Bible, Torah, Koran and seeing [on a per adherent basis] who are the most violent. I doubt that the Torah adherents would get anywhere near to as violent as the Moslems. Americans can get quite irate and have some serious armaments and have a demonstrated propensity to use them.

So I'd say most violent to least would be Koran, USA Flag, Bible, Torah, Libertarian... [though of course some of the serious adherents of Christianity would assert pacifism which is more peaceful than the tit for tat realm of Libertarianism]
