If a friend insults my mother, “he’s going to get a punch” - Pope

Now back to my original point: People who believe in unlimited freedom should not use the report button or give out negative ratings as that would be hypocritical.
negative rating =/= 7.62 round

free speech, and people are equally free to be offended.. but there's civilized non fascist ways to deal with it.

Yeah and I condemn the massacre so whats your point?
my point is that even if you condone the killings, that's your free speech. If the mullahs in Iran and Saudi Arabia hang someone for such blaspheme, it's their laws.. I won't have any business poking my nose there, people who took such great offense to it should be glad they don't live in France, and those in France who did, should consider moving to Saudi Arabia, or, if they are shia, Iran :sarcastic:

all anti semitic material was not re-printed and/or the specific cartoonists lost their jobs....i posted that to show the hypocrisy on full display. Hell - holocaust denial is an arrestable offence in many EU countries

(its stupid to deny the holocaust but its also stupid to deliberately inflame and offend people of a certain religious group)
man, Charlie Hebdo.. a small publication by any standard (they did 60k prints a week), operating out of ultra liberal Paris in the heart of Europe.. their target audience was not exactly Zarvan from Lahore lol

but, in the the 'muslim world'..by all means, gather and protest at their embassy, if you truly believe you have the moral high ground, write an intellectual piece and shame these people, start a healthy debate..

just let's not drive 15 tonne of explosive laden suicide truck into the consulate, and also not to shoot anyone or chop their heads off etc, can we ? :P
