Charlie Hebdo Attack

[JohnStOnge]

Without having seen the cartoons the cartoonists did...and I'm talking about all their cartoons and not just the ones offending Muslims...I would not be surprised if they were a bunch of pricks. Political cartoonists, I think, tend to be pricks. I think the profession selects for that.

But this kind of thing still can't be tolerated.

My wife and I just took out a subscription to Charlie Hebdo and, yes, we can read French.

Did you really? Because that's a really cool idea. Don't just write "#jesuischarlie." When someone tries to silence free speech, make it louder.

I'll just put this here...

Donohue said Charlie Hebdo had a “long and disgusting record ” of mocking religious figures, including unflattering depictions of the Prophet Mohammad and Catholic popes.

“While some Muslims today object to any depiction of the Prophet, others do not,” he continued. “Moreover, visual representations of him are not proscribed by the Koran. What unites Muslims in their anger against Charlie Hebdo is the vulgar manner in which Muhammad has been portrayed. What they object to is being intentionally insulted over the course of many years. On this aspect, I am in total agreement with them.”

Yes, we did. Expensive, too: about $180 for one year. We'll get our first issue in 4-6 weeks, they say.

Rotterdam's mayor tells radical muslims to "fuck off".

It’s incomprehensible that you turn against freedom like that, but if you don’t like this freedom, for heaven’s sake, get your suitcase, and leave. There might be a place where you belong, and be honest with yourself about that, don’t kill innocent journalists.
This is so backwards, so incomprehensible, go away if you can’t find your place in the Netherlands, or accept the society we want to build here, because we only want people, including all those Muslims, and all those well-intentioned Muslims, who may be looked at with suspicion, we want to keep all those people together in what I call the “We Society”. And if you don’t like it here because you don’t like the humorists who make a little newspaper – if I may dare say so – just fuck off.

And he's muslim...

Wait, I thought it was only Conks who say that if you don't like some place, you can just leave.

Maybe he's a Conk, Muslin Neanderthaler...uh, Netherlander, err, Nederlander...urp...Dutchlander...awww, screw it.

Hey, glad someone is speaking up. Now, to the real problem...the Left won't let anyone get deported.

A new Charlie Hebdo is out, with a press run of millions, and another cover spoofing Mohammed that will rile up the muslins again.

Hmmmm...a German newspaper's office was firebombed after reprinting the Hebdo cartoons?

C'mon, guys, keep up with the news!

http://time.com/3663233/charlie-hebdo-c ... orgenpost/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

"A firebomb and several stones were thrown through a window of the Hamburger Morgenpost in Hamburg’s Othmarschen borough, the Guardian reported. Authorities said the fire was contained quickly and the damage was relatively minor.

The attack on Charlie Hebdo’s offices by two al-Qaeda-affiliated gunmen on Wednesday killed 12 people including the magazine’s top staff, following which the Morgenpost reprinted three of the magazine’s controversial cartoons on its front page under the headline “This Much Freedom Must Be Possible!”

Police, however, said a link between the arson attack and the German newspaper’s publication of the cartoons has not yet been conclusively established."

I just got this ad:

[YoUDeeMan]

I just got this ad:

Yup...got that one, too.

#1 looks angry. #2 looks like a cheap hookah girl. #3...probably has an IED strapped underneath that outfit.

No to all of them.

But then again, I'm known as being picky.

Edit: I got the "Meet Russian Women" ad after I posted this. Every time I reject the Muslins, I get offered a Russian. String bet.

You can't kill them all, you can't jail them all, prohibiting their wailing from the Duke Bell Tower only causes more division.

In the end, it's peace, love, and understanding…(along with some timely drone strikes and oodles of porn and booze airdropped over the middle east)

The awful fact is that violence of this type is almost impossible to stop. If any of us decide to yield to the terror within us and inflict violence, misguidedly or arbitrarily then how can it be prevented? More gates and bars and guards? More spying and borders and hate? More division and suspicion and derision? That is the philosophy that got us here.

The only answer is in the territory of the spirit, in the deep interconnectedness within us all. In the acceptance that all action on this plane is the manifestation of an inner realm and violence of an inner malady. Our only hope is compassion and love. To marshall vigorously the only terror and violence we can absolutely control; that which is within us individually.

I don't mean this in a wet, liberal "kumbaye ah me lord" type way. I am saying that we must love as passionately as they hate. We must respect as vehemently as they desecrate. It is not easy to be peaceful and loving in the face of dreadful violence but it's all we have.

The reason I feel frightened by tragedies such as this is because I think there's nothing I can do, but there is. I can love and tolerate and reach across the fear. In places where secular and religious folk live together we have got to start observing the main message of every scripture; "be nice".

All the other stuff is speculation; which book is best, which God is the most mighty. None of us know what's beyond the sensory realm, this tiny sliver of material life strewn within the infinite. But we each have the power to create heaven or hell here on Earth, extremists on all sides are clear in their intentions and actions, we, the vast, powerful majority, Christians, Muslims, atheists and undecideds have to be more committed and more determined. We must love life more than they love death. We must love each other more than they hate, in God's name, in Allah's name in Charlie's name, in all our names.

He impressed the shit out of me with his Mark Maron WTF interview. Then, "Get Him to the Greek" - one of the most under-rated comedies in years. Then, his appearance on "Morning Joe" - oh the establishment media irreverence!

He's been off drugs and booze for years and he's a deep thinker.

Yep, probably not for you...
