I think you're right.

Nevertheless, it's wrong for the slogan to be "I am Charlie Hebdo."

If somebody --- deranged or not, religious or not --- ever wipes out the Hustler magazine staff (which I of course firmly and unambiguously condemn), will we protest and show our bona-fides by carrying signs that say, "I AM LARRY FLYNT"?

Exactly. We can affirm that the murders are wrong without aligning ourselves ideologically with the magazine.
