I imagine we will start seeing articles soon that assert such involvement by western intelligence, but I doubt we will ever reach a consensus that the charges have been "proven".___________________________________________

Don't know whose quote this was but if people are going to rage about a comic, the bank getting robbed, the fact the person beside me on the bus can't speak any of the two official languages of the country I live in, etc., they may well just off themselves to save the rest of us who can get along with the way the world runs. Incite rage, SWEET!
Don't like the new country you want to call home and the way they run their bizniz, just fuck off back home. Nobody will miss you. And while you are their don't open a magazine that will put you in a rage.
People on this board trying to defend killing because you are outraged. Fucking odd balls!
I'll say it again in hopes that people can actually fucking get this through their heads: no one is defending killing. NOT ONE PERSON.

how would you feel if someone printed a cartoon of one of your loved ones, or someone you respect, or whatever, being fucked in the ass by a donkey, or whatever the hell it was? i'm pretty sure that's the very definition of bullying.
if there was a magazine out there with ed getting anally raped by scott stapp, this place would fucking explode.

It would upset me. Would I go murder that person? No.

didn't say you would. but you agreed with dignin originally that printing a cartoon was not bullying, which was my point.

Upsetting someone is not the same as bullying them. Those aren't synonymous terms.

If the attacks result in Charlie Hebdo exercising restraint for fear of extreme retribution, then they have been bullied and effectively censored."My brain's a good brain!"0

No I'm not. You claimed bullying. I don't see it. Showing that someone may have been upset by something is not showing someone was bullied. People are upset by things all the time, both rightly and wrongly. Someone being upset by something is not proof someone was bullied. That is not semantics.

I know those words aren't synonymous.....but in the context I presented, I think it's pretty clear that it would be considered bullying. put that same situation in the classroom, or the workplace, etc, and it's considered bullying. putting it in mass media is no different. it's just a different vehicle.

We obviously have a different view of what is and isn't bullying.___________________________________________

I wonder what kind of cartoon would be drawn about this article?

And some people wonder why others of us make fun of religion. Arguing that a snowman made in the likeness of man is sinful? That sure is a lusty and erotic snowman and is clearly "anti-Islamic."

I was imagining a similar scenario, Drowned Out. It's difficult to think that this could happen and I'm not a big fan of conspiracy theories, but it is an interesting question to ponder.
Why is it difficult to think it could happen? There are many examples of similar scenarios that have been verified and admitted to by western powers...conspiracies? Yes. Theories? No.
No you're right, it's not difficult to think that it could happen, it's difficult and unsettling to think that maybe it did happen. Many theories surrounding conspiracies have been debunked... but of course, not all. That is unsettling.
Now, folks, here's something that I've been hesitant to mention but I'll throw it out there because I'm curious as to whether or not this makes sense:
Not too many years ago, many Americans were bashing the French because of France's opposition to the invasion of Iraq. We even went so far as to rename "French Fries"- "Freedom Fries". For some people here, everything French was evil.
So this afternoon, while I was rummaging around in a local thrift store, the Rush Limbaugh show was being aired on that stores radio (always nice to have some entertainment going while shopping). The commentators were practically falling all over themselves talking about how we really need to rally to support the French people in the wake of the Charlie Hebo shootings.
Now look, don't get me wrong. I'm NOT saying we should condone the shooting or that we should not have compassion for the French people. What I am questioning is why some segments of our population seem to be rather fickle when it comes to running the gamut from Franceophobia to Frenchophilia.
Is this a stretch?
