So when does freedom of speech cross the "hate" line?

Obviously it comes into play when the perpetrator is white and the recipient is not.

That's horrible. I'd consider this an act of terror. I've always found these radicals to be hypocrites, among other things. They are such, horrible, vile people.

The obvious solution here is more gun control and regulation of hate speech.

My question is what are the vast majority of peace loving followers of Islam doing to reign in the small minority of radical Islamists? Their response to these radicals seems to be similar to that of the majority of peace loving Germans reacting to the Nazis in the 1930's...

If you keep poking the sleeping bear........

Charlie Hebdo, the satirical French magazine that was the target of a deadly attack today, is part of a long tradition of French satire dating to the days before the French Revolution.

The left-wing magazine is known for its biting takedowns. Its past targets include the political right wing, capitalism, Christianity, Judaism and Islam.

It most recently came to the world's attention when it published cartoons of Islam's Prophet Muhammad soon after the deadly 2012 attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi that killed Chris Stevens, the U.S. ambassador to Libya. Initially, it was thought that an anti-Islam film had fanned the violence. The magazine, in its cartoons, referred to that film. At the time, editor Stephane Charbonnier said the cartoons would "shock those who want to be shocked."

Many Muslims consider the depiction of their prophet to be blasphemous.

A year earlier, Charlie Hebdo's offices were firebombed after it published an issue that invited the Prophet Muhammad to be guest editor; the issue included an article about what a soft version of Sharia might look like. The magazine was renamed Charia Hebdo for the issue, and its cover included an image of the prophet with the line, "A thousand lashes if you don't die laughing."

The magazine was also part of the controversy over the publication in 2005 by the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten of cartoons depicting Islam's prophet. The newspaper said the decision to publish the 12 editorial cartoons would contribute to the debate over Islam and free speech. The move resulted in violent protests worldwide and threats against Jyllands-Posten. In solidarity, Charlie Hebdo reprinted the 12 cartoons in 2006. Its headline for the feature was "Muhammad Overwhelmed By Fundamentalists."

It's pretty obvious to me. Muslims don't like cartoons.

I am wearing my "I cant Breathe" tshirt while reading this. I cant help but laugh, if you do not have a gun to protect yourself, you earned this.

Today I made it legal AND socially acceptable to hit back first on the religion of peace. The America I want to live in rejoices in the clipping of a terrorist/muslim BEFORE they get off a plan. Not after

It cannot withstand critical analysis.

Rather than defend their ideology, they declare challengers to be blasphemors who must be destroyed.

The trademark of an unsound doctrine.





Kinda like shouting "consensus" and villifying scientific debate.... :roll:

There shouldn't be such a line. Speech is speech. You can regulate stuff that leads directly to a bad action (the fire in the crowded theater argument) and threats of real harm but that's it. Anyone should have the right to say whatever they want to say about anyone else's beliefs or person or attributes. Heck, D1B might be the biggest Catholic hater I've ever met but he's more than entitled to say what he says. That's what freedom is. Blasphemy should be embraced for what it is - freedom. If I had a cartoon of Muhammed I would post it right now.
