Toronto Sun ^

MONTREAL - Quebec's French-language newspapers published a cartoon of Prophet Mohammed on Thursday in solidarity with Paris's Charlie Hebdo, where Muslim terrorists massacred 12 people the previous day.

It shows a bearded man, clad head-to toe-in black, crying with his head in his hands.

The headline reads: "Mohammed overwhelmed by fundamentalists" with the Muslim prophet saying: "It's hard being loved by jerks."

Since when was anything Mohhamedan about love?

Leave it to the Canadians to demonstrate more courage than the American media.

And the French-Canadians, at that.

Especially considering the Canadians not only have to worry about the mohammedans but also persecution by their own government for “human rights” violations.

They didn't display the cartoon. All it showed was pictures of fifteen covers for the paper.

The ROP will bring peace to the world - by force if necessary.

It’s an offense to Moslems to make any picture of Mohammed, so good for them for publishing one.

OTOH, it’s a pro-Mohammed cartoon. So that’s kind of cowardly.

Good for them.

In Canada on business I was shocked to hear ONE DAY AFTER the Charlie Hebdo attacks, “Conservative Talk” CFRA call-in topic was:

“Are these cartoons offensive and should they be published?”

Talk about missing the point.

Then again CFRA is Canadian and owned by Bell Media so “free speech” really isn’t their bag so much as “go along and get along,” Allah willing.

“Are these cartoons offensive and should they be published?”

So you would rather live in a country where the cartoons are not published and the question is never asked?

I'm watching Fox News Contributors complain about the media not banding together to show the content, and while doing it, Fox fails to show the cartoon and even pixilates the police officer getting killed on the sidewalk.

Has Fox News shown the cartoons yet? I haven't seen it.

There is something about French leftist’s love for liberty (at least some elements of it) that American leftist totally lack. This is the opposite of what I would expect. American leftists are bat-shit crazy and totalitarian.

FReepers have it!

No surprise that Fox News wouldn’t want to offend Newscorp’s second largest stockholder, the same guy who financed Obama’s no-study education.
