Hooded gunmen dressed in black burst into the office of French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo Wednesday 7/1/2015, killing 12 people in a coordinated strike and escaping onto the streets of Paris.

The three suspects behind the attack have been identified, Paris Deputy Mayor Patrick Klugman told CNN. Two of them are brothers.

French authorities vowed to step up security and apprehend those responsible.

“Everything will be done to arrest (the attackers)”, French President Francois Hollande said in a speech Wednesday night. “… We also have to protect all public places. Security forces will be deployed everywhere there can be the beginning” of a threat. (1)

It seems tragic.
It seems unfair.
It seems wrong.

And it is.

Showing disrespect to things which are holy to other people is also…

Tragic.
Unfair.
Wrong.

No, the one does not justify the other.
These statements are just both true. At the same time.

Killing people is bad. Christianism is the first who said that.

But which fascist was defeated by showing Jesus Christ fucking God and the Holy Spirit fucking Jesus? What kind of freedom of speech right was justified and honored by showing Jesus Christ fucking God and the Holy Spirit fucking Jesus?

Lack of limitations, lack of rules, is characteristic of the jungle…

And now all the animals are let loose…
