Bill Donohue did not condone the killing of the satirists at Charlie Hebdo. He blamed the terrorists who did the slaughter.

OTOH (I heard him on Neil Cavuto’s show on Wednesday), he did manage to muddle the story by bringing in the anti-religious antics of the leftist media which does provoke a lot of people. Bill was referring to “bad behavior” such as when leftists scandalously deface religious objects, i.e. when they show pictures of the ‘piss Christ’ picture and the Madonna with elephant dung on her - which Christians hold dear to their hearts. Leftists applaud such behavior and Donohue says this type of behavior is an abuse of the First Amendment.

Donohue said that the newspaper victims on Wednesday were NOT to blame for their own deaths, but that they may have goaded terrorists into this act.

I agree with Bill, but the two subjects are only tangentally related to each other.

My point is that Bill Donohue does not speak for me as a Catholic. I did not comment on his current statements themselves.

It may be most accurate to state that Bill Donohue speaks for his contributors.
