yes, it is a pretty cruel cartoon. I know Texans will have no desire to go to Charlie Hebdo offices and murder 12 of their employees in retaliation for it, however.

It is a French magazine's opinion of the US and the current political climate.

I am not fond of it, but it's hardly going to affect the lives of Americans in any way.

I for one am glad to see they haven't been cowed.

Hebdo's satire is usually waaaaay too strong for my taste, but I fully support their right to publish it.

Most of damage and death is Houston correct? I believe Houston is a purple state, maybe not right down the middle but it has put forth fairly liberal politicians.
