I Am Going to Say Something Controversial

This is the cover of the last issue of French satyrical magazine Charlie Hebdo.


Personally, I don't like it. I find it lacks finesse like ALL their covers. But I believe in free speech. When their office went through a terror attack a couple of years ago, many claimed for freedom of speech, and said 'Je suis Charlie'.

If you were for freedom of speech and were Charlie then, you must be for freedim of speech now too. Otherwise, if now you think this is hate speech, you are a hypocrite.

I think the problem is the most who were using the french flag at the attack on C.H. on their facbook and all shouting "je suis Charlie" are now the one's who have problems with this front page, freedom of speech, as long as it fits them, and forgetting what's the job of those cartoonists; kicking asses and being controversial.

@SW-User Exactly. This magazine is controversial for the sake of it. And those who defend freedom of speech only when it suits their agenda are nothing but hypocrites
