I just want to pay tribute, however insignificant. However off-the-mark.

A friend put it well on Facebook: “I was raised to believe that everything in the world was open to question and ridicule. Clearly this was a misguided liberal notion.” The people targeted and killed yesterday were cartoonists and satirists. Not politicians, not soldiers, not police, not fanatics, not world leaders or mercenaries, but cartoonists and satirists.
