Who said countries have to tolerate muslim immigrants then?
obviously I support diversity, but it's the same logic.
If you move to a country, you will respect that country's rule of law. In france, that includes freedom of press and speech.
Then they should have respected the rule of law in their country.
Legally
Morally
Ehtically
the muslim radicals were and ARE in the wrong here.
No amount of pontification from you will change that. They will be remembered in history for being villains, and making MARTYRS of Charlie Hebdo, who will now multiply in terms of people looking to be courageous and do satire too.
Ofcourse I'm not comparing it to the terrorist attack.
I'm saying if a Muslim were to do the same he'd be considered oversensitive, and he shouldn't get offended because it's satire.
Satire doesn't automatically exclude the subject of being offensive.
Sorry, I thought you did because of your "Good riddance" comment in the other thread when the attack first happened. But yeah, there is some truth in what you're saying.

What a cowardly response. Insinuating Muslims are terrorist sympathizers is a disgusting notion. Aren't you ashamed of putting out a statement like that? Why would you want to spread hate?
And with your logic, none of us should be upset when anyone publically calls homosexuals "pedophiles" or "sinful" or that we should be put to death. Because it's just an opinion, and we should "bug off".

No gays killed Eminem over that. What the terrorists did was wrong. They not only killed 12 people who worked for the magazine they also killed 4 other people who had nothing to do with it and they killed them just because they were Jewish. The outrage should be at the gunmen not a damn magazine with only 200,000 in circulation. Who does more damage to Islam radicals or satirists?

exactly.
Muslims killing people in the name of their religion does WAY more to harm the image of Muslims around the world than these little cartoons

I don't know about your reading comprehension but for your sake, I did write the word "HERE".
Anyways, I don't have time to spoon feed you. I do respect your "opinion" and I hope, even there's a slim chance, you know how to respect others opinion. Have a good day! )
You shall not make for yourself a carved image or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above or that is on the earth beneath or that is in the water below
The only places where you'll find those paintings are in CATHOLIC edifices and households.
That's one of the many distinctions between Catholic Christians and Protestant Christians.
I believe this part was in reference to the Idols the Egyptians worshipped. The line after that says not to worship the images, similar to what the Egyptians did in temples. But I do agree that Charlie Hebdo is an offensive magazine to both Christians and Muslims. I'm all for free speech, but not when you're going out of your way to antagonize a group of people.
People still explaining the reasons why the magazine has been attacked, justifying these horrrible acts.... I can't believe it.
So it's okay to KILL people because of that... This is the magazine's fault, ok.... I thought it was because of these ****ing terrorists...
And why 2 cops (one of them was Muslim) have been killed ? There's NO ****ING EXCUSES for these crimes ffs.
No, it's not okay to kill people over the pictures. But the writers and artists should know better than to provoke religious groups, it's tacky. Satire or not, it just isn't funny
You could have at least provide some stats about what you're saying so that at least you'll have a chance for me to believe you. But I'm sure you don't have any or should we ask your 'cousin' if there's any?
Do you know how many muslim people who are illegal immigrant in Europe? I could show some stats but I don't want to embarrass you.

Google expat schools in Saudi. The fact that there are expat schools (and people blogging their experiences there) show that non-muslims DO go to those countries and not just for a vacation. Any simpleton should be able to grasp that idea.

Is not an "opinion." It is putrid crap that belongs in the fear-mongering US government circa late 2001. It's tantamount to profiling (and not a positive kind). It's blatant Islamophobia.
I don't support terrorism, murder, etc - but this issue is a lot more complicated than that. Nobody at that magazine should have been harmed and free speech is essential to advanced societies, but being offended by what they publish (as some ATRLers are) is not the same as defending the terrorists and is also an essential, immutable right and aspect of the free speech that allows the magazine to exist in the first place.
Must've been so hard for the cartoonist to draw and write that
