At least one gunman opened fire Saturday on a Copenhagen cafe, killing one man in what authorities called a likely terror attack during a free speech event organized by an artist who had caricatured the Prophet Muhammad.

The shooting, which also wounded three police officers, came a month after extremists killed 12 people at a satirical newspaper in Paris that had also sparked Muslim outrage with its depictions of Muhammad.

If the words “Islamic terrorists” are not included in the description of the activity, it is because the Danes are probably even more “politically correct” than the majority of news media in this territory in the North American continent once known as “the United States of America”.

The Danes are much further down the road to Shari’ah law than even Dearborn, Michigan. They are very nearly on a par with Birmingham, England, unofficially a “no-go” zone for non-Muslims in Great Britain.

The Danes were less co-operative with the Nazis during the Second World War.

Ain’t that the truth.

I turned on my TV at around 10:45 this morning...CNN was right on top of the story, over at FOX it was Cavuto and business as usual.

CNN does a much better job on “breaking news.” When FOX does get around to it, they give you the highlights then they bring in their regular, over-used, vapid talking heads (Rivera, Beckel and the rest of the morons from The Five and that other stupid program they have on at noon) to discuss it.

You may not like the commentary, but CNN covers breaking news much better than FOX, IMHO.

BTW, the commentary on FOX is getting as lib as CNN’s.

Wow... someone invented a gun that shoots bullet holes.

LOL. Cuts out the middle man. That that!, DHS. You can buy up all the bullets in the world but we'll just go out and buy the bullet holes.

Those black bullet holes are the nastiest ones that black guns fire. The suck light out of whatever they hit.

Jihad is a legitimate tenet of Islam, the CIA director said so.

Islam means submission and every muslim is obligated to the goal of global submission.

Islam is incompatible with Western Civilization.

Submit, die or convert.

Charles Martel saved Christianity and Western Civilization in 732, Jan Sobieski in 1683. I hope we have someone like them now......

Fox is totally useless on weekends... most of their weekend programming is pre-recorded days earlier.

I'm pretty fed up with their weekday programming too, they seem to devote about 80% of their time pushing their choice for GOP candidates... which coincide with who the left want us to run (since they know they're losers).

Fox is all in on amnesty.
It’s all about the amnesty.
It has all been all about the amnesty since the last one passed.
The ruling class wants to steal our country from us and they need to import enough socialist voters to do it.

I watch BBC world news in the mornings because they do actual hard news from around the world.

Its one of the reasons I’m not sure we’re getting an accurate story out of Yemen. They’ve been covering Yemen for months and I’m not sure one group is better than another there.

Exactly. Free Speech is too dangerous. Someone might get hurt.

They are all wretched.

I can't help but chuckle at the New York Times and its attempt at PR for the Houthis, whose motto is God is Great, Death to America, Death to Israel!

That's their entire platform. Even NSDAP's 25 point platform only devoted 8 points to demonizing Jews.

In other words, if Heinrich Himmler joined up with them, he would be the George McGovern of the group.

But Islam is a Religion of Peace(tm).
