Ah, I guess I misunderstood. The Charlie Hebdo guys and the guys in Texas were just bigots but did not deserve violence.

That's correct. That's why there's not much frooty to be had here; everyone involved is a stupid idiot, especially the dead guys who wanted to murder people.

No, it's not correct. It's not even loving close to correct.

Charlie Hebdo is about as bigoted as The New Republic. It was started and staffed by French leftists and anticolonialists. It's freaking chief target was the friggin' National Front. Charb worked for MRAP for years. Charlie frequently used racist tropes but it did so to use them to skewer and satirize racists. It's literally about as far as you can get from Geller and her ilk.

Helps if you speak French for the second one. If you don't, it's the head of France's largest anti-racist group praising Hebdo for its anti-racism.

I don't think it's bigoted to draw a picture of some old dead guy but it's deliberately provocative the way shouting "fire!" in a theater is.

That's some next level poo poo. They were drawing racists caricatures of Muslims and deliberately drawing Muhammad to incite anger in a single population as a satire.

Did they scream "it's a joke! it's a joke!" when their offices were under attack?

Roach motels are kind of gross. You wouldn't want to leave a roach motel on your kitchen table with polite company. But roach motels search a purpose.

Bigots in Texas are kind of gross. You wouldn't want to invite a Texan bigot to your house with polite company. But. in this case at least, bigots in Texas managed to honeypot two dangerous individuals at enormous risk to themselves.

If you want to kill people in Texas, you camp out in a clock tower, lean out the 6th floor of a depository, or go onto a military base. You don't go to a Mohammad Win-Lose-or-Draw festival unless you're pretty stupid or unstable. So I guess we can at least scratch off the ISIS Apple Dumpling gang from our list of threats.

No, it means the government can't throw me in jail for saying whatever I want, regardless if it upsets others. There's no right to be not offended in the US.

Of course there are very narrow exceptions to that. But ridiculing a religion is not one of them.

That's not my point. My point is that just because folks have the legal right to deliberately antagonize and offend people it doesn't mean they should exercise it. "But my free speech!" is no defense for being an arsehole. Legally, yes. Morally and socially, no

Mr and Mrs Duck go and stay in a nice hotel.

One night they call room service for some condoms as things are heating up.

The guy arrives and says "do you want me to put it on your bill"

Mr Duck says "what kind of pervert do you think I am?!

Watch out buddy - the French government arrested 54 people for saying similar things after the Charlie Hebdo attacks. Some were children and one was arrested on a Saturday and had been charged, tried, convicted and imprisoned for 4 years by Wednesday morning.

His original crime was expressing "support" for the gunmen whilst drunk in a pub, but the French authorities got round that pesky freedom of speech thing by doing him for resisting arrest.

The French are even quite good at satirising their own legal system!
