Artists around the world are paying tribute to the victims 
of Wednesday's attack on French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo. 
The attack in Paris killed 12 people, 
among them four cartoonists.

An old New Yorker cartoon is recirculating of a blank page that the cartoonist captioned: 


"Please enjoy this culturally, ethically, religiously 
and politically correct cartoon responsibly. Thank you."

"No Freedom without Freedom of Press"

by Tomi Ungerer


 "If those who carried out this horrendous act of cowardice 
truly believe it will prevent the free expression of ideas, 
they are sadly mistaken

  1. Everyone wants to be in solidarity but no one is brave enough to publish the very cartoons that got these men killed. So the terrorists won. The cartoons should be plastered everywhere around the world then the point of free press would be made. We can say Je suis Charlie all day long but in the end let's face it we're all scared to death. They are winning despite all the bromides and platitudes and prayers and sadness expressed the world over. It's very sad on so many levels.
