I'm calling it a night on this one.

Some people should remember not to drink on a school night.

Goodnight.

No idea, I didn't ask.

You don't think it's worth the effort to back up your words with actions, that's fair enough. At least you had the testicular fortitude to say so unlike some.

The people in the bakery didn't run any cartoons and considering Charlie Hebdo has been targeted before I suspect they had a pretty good idea it would happen again, the editor Stephane Charbonnier even said as much after the first attack three years ago and said the thought of it wouldn't stop his work.
Given the deaths that have resulted i wonder if he would still feel the same had he lived ,more to the point i wonder if the families of all those dead people feel as he did or are they acceptable losses in the fight to maintain someones right to print whatever the hell they like regardless of consequencies.

I reckon most if not all don't actually give a toss about the press' percieved right to print whatever they want ,they just want their loved ones back

You are right. Lets roll over and go along with everything these deluded idiots want us to do. Appeasement is the answer :(
The thing with a**holes like this is that if you give them an inch they will take a mile......and that is their plan.

That's always been their strategy.

just taking offence on something small. expands into bigger things.
those small things that expand. are the strategies of world domination.

As an aside, after watching the debating going on here, one thing that is encouraging to me at least is the fact, that compared to say 5 or 6 years ago, more people are now much more vigorously defending the Western way of life/values.
This is a good thing, and shows perhaps as time goes by and the Muslims get more 'demanding' that decent society rises up to meet that. I suppose it helps that we're not all now immediately called bigots or racists, or far right nutjobs and immediately stifled as we were if we ever dared to murmur anything under the last administrations regime.

Just an observation, I also think that as more ordinary (non Muslim) people get peed off with the situation, more will question the validity of acceding everything to a people that take offence at anything.

Maybe then, things will start to change, people generally only put up with so much ******** for so long.

We can only go on his word that he felt what they were doing was worth the risk even after the previous attack and I don't think anyone rational would say their deaths were acceptable, no more than anyone would say that the attacks were a justified response to the original printing.

"I always knew he was going to die like Theo Van Gogh. I begged him to leave France but he wouldn’t." She has also said that Charb never had children because he knew he was going to die, that he defended secularism and the spirit of Voltaire. “I admired him before I fell in love with him and I loved him because of the way he was, because he was brave. He thought that life was a small thing when he was defending his ideals,” she said.

It's a good and true point.
we have put up with such a lot from them over the years. and we have tolerated it more due to their colour/race/religion/whatever.

but they have got more 'demanding' until enough is enough.

the truth is. that if they were not of a different colour/race/religion then they would have been told a long time ago where to stick it.
