I condemn it

Right. Neither do I demand sawing Le Monde's collective head off. Did Le Monde condemn the cartoons? No, it printed its own, proving that they are equal-opportunity vandals.

[Petronski]

Le Monde should be free to print what they want, and we should all condemn efforts to squelch free speech through threats of violence. I applaud efforts to defy such threats of violence.

Market boycotts are different: that's freedom of association. I draw a bright-line distinction between threatening to refuse to buy a product and threatening to kill those who disagree.

Remember Voltaire? Something like "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."
