Anyway, the hunt is now one, hopefully another terrorists body will be forthcoming soon.


Thank god it was B loody lousy shooting by the perp, it could have been a real massacre.

With the open borders of Europe, could be well away by now.

Second shooting in Copenhagen just happened.

Grrrrrrrrr, in a neutral country too.

Granted, stupid of both Danish and Swedish cartoonists to feel a need to draw those cartoons.

Totally unnecessary.

I am more annoyed at the cartoonists whom know better than the not so intelligent extremists.

At a Synagogue.

I just wonder if those cartoonists and editors of the papers feel any regret about having publicised those cartoons?

Rational people would have known that anything like that would antagonize and anger some fanatic muslims.

Anything for a laugh and to make oneself a name. Never mind the consequence.

Erica, You certainly have a point, but just where do you stop exercising the choices available in a countries like the European countries and Australia.

How many choices do you surrender in the name of appeasement before you suddenly realise that you have lost all of your freedom of choice and are living by proxy the lifestyle of the terrorists?

At what point do you say "how  did this happen"?

We know what can happen, Germany, 1933 onwards until 1945

It was supposedly about an event called "Art, blasphemy and the freedom of expression" which was being held in Copenhagen.

And no, if nut cases don't like it they can stay away from such events.  The responsibility doesn't fall on the heads of the cartoonists or any other contributor.  If people don't like it they can argue against it. There is no excuse for shooting people over their taste and their desire to host a discussion about how far humour and freedom of expression can go.

Cartoonist Lars Vilks, who has faced death threats over his caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad, said he believed he was the intended target of the attack. He was unhurt.

The French ambassador, Francois Zimeray, was also present during the attack.

On a personal website of Lars Vilks, the debate was described as a talk on whether any limits should be placed on artistic expression or freedom of speech.

A description of the event asked whether artists could "dare" to be blasphemous in the wake of attacks by Islamist gunmen in Paris last month against satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo.
