If we were to burn all books we disagree with, we'd probably have to burn lots of books. But what would that be good for?
Just because you burn a book it doesn't make disappear the ideas in that book. If you burn Harry Potter books you won't make J.K. Rowling any poorer, probably the exact opposite, because you'd have to get the book first.
