Gunmen kill 10 at Paris magazine for tweeting this pic of ISIS boss

Just in: Attack on the Charlie Hebdo newspaper office in Paris has left 10 dead. The BBC reports that at least two gunmen have attacked the Paris office of French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo.

Witnesses spoke of sustained gunfire at the office as the attackers opened fire with Kalashnikov assault rifles.

The satirical weekly has courted controversy in the past with its depiction of news and current affairs. Its latest tweet was a cartoon of the Islamic State militant group leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi (see pic).

Its really bad that this happened but one has to see the reality also...
Had Charlie Hebdo newspaper didn't do all these kind of things at first place then this wouldn't have happened....

Everyone knows that ISIL group leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is not a politician but a crook & terrorist....So writing some satirical about a politician is different than depicting a person like Al-Baghdadi......

Some countries & cultures take the things granted for others & then these sort of things happens....
Had Sony avoided producing a film showing North Korean leader's assassination, it would have saved hundreds of millions of dollors & also would have saved future investment in Bond films......

The same happened last week when an American company launched beer cans with Mahatma Gandhi's photo on it........

Freedom should also be limited in everything. I feel at least Gods should not be made fun about. Becoming a Total Free Society is also wrong, it gives birth to more issues

Regarding terrorists well they always misuse name of religion

Today you are saying fun should not be made on God, tomorrow somebody will say not to make fun on politicians. The someone will say not to make fun of celebrities. And later on making fun of anyone will become crime.

Let freedom be complete freedom.. If we poorna swaraj was not required why our freedom fighters fought for it?

What if people start saying that we want to roam nude like some do in London and New York and what if a person says that i want to take drugs its my life , make it legal. What if people say that i like sex so plz legalize prostitution and open kothas in every part of the city. What is people say that i love speed so ban red lights or what is people say that allow nude/sex scenes on TV during day time as i have a right to see what i want

Now you are talking about something which is not allowed and illegal as per India Law.

Freedom of speech and changing existing law are two different things.

Again freedom of speech should night be insulting or defaming someone. It again become a crime.
