@Oldmike,

Then you haven't been paying attention to the Christians of this world. Christians regularly kill both each other and non-believers for all sorts of transgressions of the Faith. They act in direct conflict of the Commandments and while risking the loss of their eternal soul. Examples? Sure.
The bombing in Oklahoma City was a response by Tim McVeigh to the ATF attack on the Branch Davidians.
The murder of Dr. Tiller and other MDs whom gave offense to pro-lifer Christians.
Eric Robert Rudolph is currently serving four life sentences for two killings and the Atlanta Olympic bombing (amongst others). He attacked because of pro-life and anti-gay stances.
Elsewhere, Nigerian Christians hardly let a day go by without attacking a Muslim community. The same in India.( Of course, in India, it's a three-way with Hindus burning down mosques and Muslims bulldozing temples and Christians dishing it out to both.)
There are attacks from all religions on each other and within each faith. The conflict in Syria right now is as much about power between Muslim sects as it is about the Assad regime. Syrian Christians are allied with the ruling Alawis . Huh, who would have thought that?

But if you really want to see death because of Bible burning, read the history of the making of the English Bible. It was 150 year long bloodbath with the last martyrs going to the stake to die because they defiled the Latin Bible by publishing one in English, all on orders from King James only a year before he decided maybe he would publish an English Bible. Wha?
