Funny, because there are over a billion Muslim people who don’t try to force their beliefs on others.

Yes. With about 2 billion overall, it's probably more. If I generalized I apologize for that, I didn't mean to. Though I don't think I have?

So if we can do things based on the actions of a few extremists, then given that definitively Christianity is the most violent religion in known history, both contemporary and historically, where are the Bible burnings?

If burning Bibles would cause violent outbursts up to burning buildings and killing people, the same logic would apply. But since there is no such reaction (as far as I know), there is no need for that provocation. People will frown and condemn and move on.

antagonize people who otherwise would have likely no problem with you.

I don't trust a peace which only holds as long as you live by the arbitrary rules of another religion. But I understand this is subjective, and accept your opinion. We don't need to agree.
