Does that right extend to burning a copy of the Torah outside of a Synagogue?

Yes to every religion

Even when it both makes Jewish people unsafe and encourages an atmosphere of racism, which only ever results in one thing?

If they're is no law against "making people unsafe, by provoking a 3rd party" then yes. If they're is a law against that, actions like these would be stopped. There doesn't seem to be one though. Any Swede here?

In Germany something vaguely like this would probably count as "Volksverhetzung", but IANL so I'm not sure that would even remotely fit.
