some christians do the same with the christian bible. muslims? you may be surprised to hear that some muslims say a koran should be burned. we talked with jihad turk, director of religious affairs at the islamic center of southern california. >> the koran as an idea is something in the hearts and minds of the believers and followers of islam. it's not the text or the piece of paper they don't worship the text of the koran. no one can touch the koran or destroy the koran. although it's not sacred or something that is worshipped, it is considered the representation of the sacred word of god. given that it's a representation of it, a muslim would want to make sure it's treated respectfully. when muslims want to respectfully dispose of a text of the koran that is no longer usable, we will burn it. so if someone, for example, if their own private collection or library had a text of the koran that was damaged or that was in disrepair so the bining was ruined, et cetera or got torn, they might bring it by the islamic center and ask that someone dispose

[laughter] >> and he said, and it's really something in my mantra, bitterness is a choice. sometimes i make it once a day, sometimes i have to make that choice constantly. but i think what i see in him and what i see -- what i've seen in a lot of people in prison who are innocent is that you're angry, then you just kind of hide and then -- at some point, almost everybody decides that this air space is actually -- the air space in their own mind is the only thing they control in their whole life. so if i'm all pissed off, it doesn't hurt the prosecutor who should have known better or the state's a
