Well old girl, I don't give a stuff what "we" want.

ask fd he makes the rules..

What some of you dimwits don't seem to understand is that events have made the reprints of these cartoons absolutely inevitable.  There is no choice in the matter.  The terrorist attack has made the issue of freedom of speech the singular and paramount one.  And there was only one option and ever only one.

PUSH BACK.  PRINT THE CARTOONS.  yes, they are offensive and probably unnecessary.  But freedom of speech doesn't only protect nice speech.  These truly dimwitted terrorists attacked something we simply cannot ignore and cannot acquiesce to - our right to speak.

If we went back in our holes and decided not to offend them then we automatically lose the entire war, not just a battle.  Islamic Terrorism isn't about cartoons. It is about our entire way of life and the intrinsic freedoms we have and the right to express them. We either defend our way of life or not.  Occasionally a lightening rod for issues like this appear and this terrorist attack is such a one.

If I could, I would buy a copy of this magazine, not because I particularly want to but to make a statement to terrorists that the more they seek to attack our way of life the more we will defend it.

It is one of those rare moments in time where we have the power to tell the Islamic world that we will not be told what we can and cannot do.

You cods, do not see it as you cower at home.

As someone else wrote above, fight back. That is easier said than done, if we fight back and print or draw racist or anti religious depictions, you go directly to jail, do not pass go. The MEDIA will also not report that a person is advocating for freedom of speech and if (we) cant tell our side of the story or argument then no one will hear::::
We will rot in jail, incommunicado, no PRESS, in a dark place.
So, it is a lost cause because without media coverage any event (did not happen).
NOTE the media is all powerful, groups who the media agree with, or sympathise with get heaps of free publicity.
IF a cause, say more freedom to own firearms by the public, this would be a lost cause, BECAUSE the media will give a slanted version, or no coverage.
THIS fight for freedom of speech should have been fought when the changes to our laws was being debated. The Liberal government recently was again defeated in making amendments to the laws of speech, LOST, why? Greens and Labour opposed the sections in question.
Jumping up and down and getting angry changes nothing, being in jail for some cartoon drawn or slur to some religious of ethnic group, will not change the law, a person needs to be free to make changes, and needs  the total support of the government of the day and the MEDIA.

Still not getting it are you.

If (I know, I know, you don't do hypotheticals. But just try and stick with this for a second), if, you had argued that this kind of cartoon was not freedom of speech because it is an attack on others, you could have an argument and not be a coward. But the moment you said that these cartoons/attacks on Christians/Buddhist/Hindus/ or any other group or party was ok because they won't shoot you, but it was wrong to do it to Muslims because they will, you showed that you are a gutless wonder.

You have not argued that these kind of cartoons should not be made at all (I find them disgusting and wouldn't ever consider buying one, so it is not as if I'm protecting the papar), but you have made it clear that you are ok with these magazines being made as long as it doesn't upset Muslims because they are violent. That is cowardly! That is saying that it is ok to attack those who won't defend themselves, but be nice to those who will. Complete yellow gutlessbuggeringwonder type cowardly.
