Killing the cartoonist is a bit like killing the court jester - the entertainer. It seems to me that only someone with a mental defect would believe that murdering an entertainer will stop the flow of ideas.
Or someone who is dedicated to their religion and every word in it....
One of the culprits in the Paris murders was a drug dealing party animal, so clearly he's not Muslim. Given what he did, he must have had some sort of mental illness.
Just like WWII..not all Germans were bad yet the 10% that were Nazis managed to murder 11 million Jews while the other 90% sat on the sidelines.
Exactly right.
Do not ignore the intent of the islamic extremists in an attempt to not mix extremists and Muslims. I'm afraid that one day "the rest of us" will be forced to either fight or bow. All because steps are not being taken now and nobody is taking the threat seriously... Oh... but it's just a few crazies. Yep, just like the SS high command was a few crazies. All it takes is a few crazies, a "cause," and a lot of blind eyes.
Interesting to note that 16% of the French support ISIS (sociopathy/murder). I try to keep a positive attitude toward the French because I love the language and I think, historically, the French have contributed a lot to culture in general. But if 16% of the French condone murder and slavery, then... screw 'em.
Except even the nonextremist Muslim blames the cartoons instead of their religion for the attack. The magazine published satire poking fun at all major religions but only Muslims reacted with violence.
"If Coulibaly turned to radical Islam while in prison, he hid it well, two former friends told the AP on Saturday.
One fellow drug dealer from the Paris suburb of Bretigny said Coulibaly regularly sold marijuana and hashish to high school students, and as recently as a month ago, was still dealing dope at La Grande Borne, a tough public housing estate to the south of Paris.
"He never went to prayers or talked about Islam," said the 19-year-old, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he didn't want to attract police attention. The dealer described Coulibaly as a fitness fan who worked out often and dressed in Nike shoes and athletic gear."
Islamic law...you kill the people committing blasphemy.
They aren't trying to stop any flow of ideas.
They will take out those that commit blasphemy against their prophet one by one.
If this had happened back in 1478, around the time of the Spanish Inquisition, it would make sense. Catholics burned at the stake those that would not practice Christianity as they dictated. Today we have some mentally unstable people doing the same thing ... shooting those that will not observe specific religious beliefs. The big difference is that this is not 1478, and presumably we have become more civilized during the past 500 years.
Cutting off heads and shooting people because they have different ideas is simply nuts. It's not normal. It belongs in the medieval days, not the present.
The Good Muslims need to step forward with their Armies and put down the extremist.
From most points of view you have to question if they don't support such extremism.
Where is the Military of the Saudi's and others that are AGAINST this extreme form of religion?
It appears the so called Good Islamist support the extremist with money and arms.
They already are doing that, though no one wants to see an all out war between countries in the Middle East. Also, not all Muslims support what their countries do. I doubt all Americans support what America does.

Exactly and that's when their Islamic laws on Blasphemy were written.
But the Imams in charge refuse to reform the law. These Imams just claim the law is being misused.

It's cute (but naive) that you don't know that they are pushing this "radical form of Islam" (because you think it's not the norm). They FUND the radical mosques in the West, but most of you couldn't spare 45 minutes to watch that video that was posted several timers. Ignorance really is bliss -- at least until Islam instituted Sharia where YOU live.

I get it, "No true Muslim" would do that.
The 9/11 killers partied at strip clubs
before they killed thousands.
I suppose they weren't Muslims either.
