All of the above activities are expressive (except 3, 4, and 9), and are in general protected speech.
However, there are a couple of points that must be kept in mind. The freedom of speech, like any other right, is subject to additional restrictions on government property. Just as there is no right to bear arms in a government building, so too is there no right to express oneself as one pleases on government property. It is perfectly permissible, therefore, for the government to ban the burning of effigies on publicly owned streets. The only rule is that these restrictions must be content-neutral. For example, the government cannot ban the burning of a Bush effigy on a publicly owned street, while permitting the burning of a Kerry effigy.
Secondly, tearing up books in public may be prohibited by littering laws, and burning objects by anti-pollution laws.
Verry expressive, although I would think 3, 4, and 9 should not be under federal jurisdiction, even if they are acceptable to regulate or ban.
