I did think that the massive crowd in Paris, there to protest and show solidarity, would have been much more effective at showing solidarity if they had each been holding one of the offending cartoons.
Likewise, every 'je suis charlie' pic/post on facebook etc really isn't demosntrating anything concrete without a cartoon of the prophet beside it. Without that, it's just words.

You've misunderstood it,If the magazine is publishing cartoons of Mohammed they are deliberately setting out to insult every Muslim on the planet not just the nutters with guns but every single peaceful one and whichever way you try to justify it that just is not right .Had the magazine just insulted the jihadists then that would fine ,no problem at all but the magazine is insulting all Muslims simply by printing pictures of their prophet

take a minute to read what you have posted. Then write me a 2 pages of A4 report on why it is a complete load of bollocks.

I don't think he is advocating people get murdered for it.
This seems quite simple so I am not sure why everyone is arguing. You can respect the notion of a free press whilst criticising what people are printing. Freedom of expression doesn't mean you're immune from being criticised for what you've expressed, indeed the criticism is itself a form of freedom of expression. Where is martyh saying they don't have the right to publish it?

He has a point.
an obvious point.
a point that should be so obvious to them.
it's a bit like going to Mars and constantly complaining that the martians are not how you want them to be.
they'd tell you to go home too.
assuming they don't vaporise you first.
