Utterly, horrendous.

[Svejk]

Scum.

[janbee]

Shocking news.

[Svejk]

I guess their supporters will be keeping a low profile today.

[ummmm]

How awful.

[tonyav]

Nowhere is safe imo.

I note the satirical magazine portrayed a cartoon of Mohammed. Doesn't take much guesswork to realise we have more evidence of an intolerant society living in the stone age abusing and exploiting the hospitality and tolerance of a modern society. This is precisely why there are protests at the moment all over Germany and soon, I predict, in France.

[retrocop]

by the way. A very Happy Birthday tonyav.

"two masked gunmen burst into the offices very heavily armed, (with) Kalashnikovs, apparently even with a rocket-propelled grenade, and opened fire, leaving several minutes later.

“Somebody who was nearby on the roof and saw much of the incident said three policemen then arrived on a pushbike. When they saw how armed these men were they left and then there was a kind of gunfight in the street.”

Well if that was ever an over the top reaction to a comic books drawings then this was it!

My condolences to all who were killed and sorry if this causes offence but did anyone else notice that the image of French President Francois Hollande is an uncanny deadringer for American Actor Phil Silvers Aka Sgt Bilko?

Im sure there will be demonstrations in the street against this kind of barbarity. No there won't I was being sarcastic. The usual left wing rent-a-mob will have their heads firmly buried in the sand.

Many thanks, retrocop.

Presumably it was one like the Goodies used to ride.

[Retrochic]

for goodness sake henrietta have a bit of decency -these people are someones mothers,fathers, husbands, wives -and you make light of it and post pictures of comedians.

[mallyh]

what a wicked thing to do ,dreadful .

[retrocop]

This tragic,horrendous crime is not a subject for mirth but when I read in the link,with sincere regret and sadness,that three policemen turned up on A bike I confess a smile came to my face. Either the Gendarmerie are not setting a good example or the French have upgraded the tandem? Vive la difference.

[retrocop]

sorry ludwig our posts crossed and sorry retrochic also. I did state,though, that I was really sincere in my regret and sadness.

Exactly. The crime is horrendous. That particular sentence is funny. Stop being such a sanctimonious twit retrochic.

[janbee]

Death toll is now 12.

[Henrietta]

Retrochic I offered my condolences and then merely said that that the president looks like an actor I know of. Oh and fyi if they're reading this then you're giving the terroriststs exactly the reaction they are looking for..
