Because it is burning the book as a symbol. And it is about burning the symbol. Noone would care about him burning it home alone without anyone knowing. But that is not what it is about. It is burned publicly, after announcing ti burn it publicly, to make sure that the threat to the people of that rekigion is heard by everyone.
You think burning jews was allowed in 1930 Germany? It is a clear step of radicalization against a minority to publicly burn symbols associated with them and that of course is a slippery slope. Terrorism against muslims is on the rise in most western countries, and acts like this help to normalize it.

Ah, so Denmark and Sweden are 1930s Germany now.
This is either an incredibly bad simile or you’re genuinely implying that they will implement a state operated mass genocide on Muslims within the next decade.
Don’t mistake me for one of those free speech absolutists but criticizing religion is not the same as attacking people.
Facism is on the rise all around Europe and if we do not change trajectory soon, it is a matter of when, not if.
Violence against muslims, but also against jews and lgbt people is increasing, and over the last decade there were numerous terror attacks, like in Norway, the NSU terror group, Munich, Hanau, Christchurch etc.
Just last week a group of school children was assaulted on a German train, because some of then were brown. About two month ago a schoolclass had to flee ftom a holiday camp in the middle of the night, under police protection because they were assaulted by the local facists.
Burning symbols of groups affected by such violence is fueling the immediate violence against the groups.
How has burning one singe copy of a widely available book affected anyone’s ability to follow their religion?
Ah, the slippery slope argument. Is burning people of that religion allowed in Denmark or Sweden?
