I have just checked out the cartoon which has Pickering in trouble on his 'Pickering Post'.

It is incredibly offensive with an Arab (Muhamed) in the form of a pig spiked from stem to stem over a roast fuelled by money; you start stuffing around with Freedom of Speech, it starts small and ends up with a great hole in our ability to say what we like in a Free Society.

So where does it start the thin end of the wedge?

It is a repulsive and offensive cartoon.

The best thing to do is not give it the enormous publicity it has already received by the media of the world.

Let the people decide, I'm sure that most will decide its a pile of crap, if we start letting the guy with the biggest gun decide then we are in a world of sh!t my friend.

If our politicians and religious leaders were not so contemptible, then satirist would not have so much material with which to play. Try just once not shooting the messenger eh?

what makes you think this is about Politicians????...

it isnt its about MADMEN with GUNS AND BOMBS...

if you asked two weeks ago should we shut down Charlie Hebdo I wouldnt have known what you were talking about......

now if you ask me.. should they stop offending these madmen...

I will say YES...I dont think a cartoon is worth 12 lives...and all the others that followed....

phem weve had many threads on here about abusive behavior and what to do about it.. banning is one of them.....please dont say this is different.. banning is banning is banning....

would you like to see banning .. banned on ozpol...???..because it only offends a few...

did Larrys cartoon offend you?.... did it amuse you? did it stop any terrorist act??....I havent seen much on this since it first aired....I thought it was revolting and served no purpose at all..

APPEASEMENT is the first step to surrender.

I choose not to surrender.

and put everyone you know or work with at risk??..

and for what??

if you can give me a clear reason.. WHAT Charlie Rebdo achieved by printing these cartoons

I can at least endeavour to see why you would put lives at risk..

what satisfaction did the magazine get after killing 12 staff??????.. perhaps you can tell me who won that battle..

where are you opposing the truly blasphemous and hateful anti-Christ cartoons, movies etc?

NOWHERE TO BE SEEN.

Ive always thought you a coward, now I am sure.

I could not care less about 'Christ.' But if I did, and asked the person taking a cheap shot to tone it down, if they didn't, I'm sure they could hardly whinge about the black eye.

I don't give a stuff about Mohammed or Islam, or Buddha either, but I respect the right of others to care......deeply if they wish.

longy doesnt get it... the world has no reason to fear us...you me and Ian .. we would never threaten to kill anyone for drawing a rude cartoon...we would whinge on a forum like this.. and tutt tutt...

but these devils.. don t look on life like we do...

they think KILL...and they have the means to carry out their threat.....

ok longy be all powerful and stand up to them...if it makes you feel good...but no good whingeing if you come home one day and everyone is dead... they did warn you....

personally I wouldnt have it on my conscience that 12 members of my staff are not going home to their loved ones anymore....all for .... Roll Eyes

. WHAT I WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND....

we are not immune to this.... Larry stepped over the line I am sorry a lot of people disagree with me....but why antagonize these fanatics.......what fun is there in doing that??... I dont call it FREEDOM OF SPEECH to insult someone...come on..when you draw a cartoon.. its usually to mock someone..why mock someone with a gun??? Shocked

Because that empowers them which will cause more problems. Not standing up to monsters has never once worked throughout history.

it didnt really get any publicity this is the thing...someone must have made a threat via the police....almost as if someone is watching the likes of these websites.....

I am so glad someon e else sees the NO POINT of this cartoon or any cartoon that offends deeply offends people...why do it.. it doesnt ever win any prizes....

its a horrible thing to even want to do.. and I read larry Pickering dont always agree with how he looks at things..and most of his cartoons are detrimental...but this is low even for him..sticking your finger up to some people is not worth it.. it really isnt.

you are on the wrong board take that to Islam where someone cares what they call their sons..

you do understand the cartoons were rude and even cruel.. like Larrys one...awful stuff...

if they are precious about their god... so what? whats so awful about that..I think its ok in thsi day and age to believe in a god and stand up for him... not the way these guys are going about it of course....but whats wrong with wanting respect for your god????????

How ever so heroic of you!!!! Will we see some 'satirical' cartoons ridiculing/abusing/lampooning Islam on large boards on your front lawn then? Tomorrow? You gonna be a keyboard hero, or provide a clear public demonstration of your ever so genuine bravado?

you know nothing about what appeasement is or surrender or more importantly STANDING UP TO PRINCIPLE. you cant even do it here when you are anonymous!

I doubt you even have principles. I certainly don't see them on display here. You are a coward, you care nothing for other peoples lives and you lack the balls to stand up for what is right - assuming you even know what it is.
