The manhunt continues for two terrorist shooters,
Cherif Kouachi, 32 and Said Kouachi, 34,
connected to the deadly massacre at the Charlie Hedbo magazine in
Paris, France. 11 cartoonist and journalists as well as one police
officer were shot to death, over cartoons of the Islamic figure,
Muhammad. The Muslim religion forbids Muhammad be drawn. The execution style murders shocked and appalled
France and the world, as gunmen believed to be affiliated with Al
Qaeda stormed the Charlie Hedbo headquarters and began calling out
the names of select employees, then executing them.
It was a cold, cruel act to murder people over their
art. The Judiciary Report advises writers and cartoonists to be
selective regarding what they publish, when it comes to religious
matters, as it may incite fanatics who will turn to murder. At the end of the day, human life is very precious
and must be treated as such. Therefore, we should endeavor to
preserve it as best as possible, even if it means agreeing to
disagree, even when we know we are right. It is not letting evil win. You
can do more good if you are alive and opposing injustice in other
ways.
