To clarify,I do not wish to diminish what happened in Paris,but I have just watched several women being interviewed,from around the world,in relation to the jihadist outrage in France.
Each one spoke of freedom of speech.

Boko Harem and Isis and islamists globally,have been kidnapping,raping,killing,converting and abusing girls and women,and where were you?

Where were your voices when the women of the world were being oppressed,and is a cartoonist in the west more important?

We are all Charlie,but sadly,many of us are sheep.

Anarchist cartoonist targeted.

88,000 police and soldiers mobilized across France tonight.

Not in the name of Islam,but a growing minority nonetheless,globally.

Interesting and worrying times.

Be safe and Peace.

Definitely gonna create political ripples for sure. We already have Le Penn advocating a return of the death penalty.

I went to an anti-death penalty lecture at Queen's Uni,and would you believe it was Enoch Powell,as guest speaker.

The death penalty may actually backfire,as juror's would feel nervous about sending a man to his grave.Beyond reasonable doubt,taken to the utmost,when it is life or death.

Hang em high mentality is often reactionary and revenge led.Cretates martyr's too,as seen in Irish republicanism,for example.
Plus the jihadi's do not fear death,do they?

Le Pen has it wrong on the death penalty,imo.
