Je Suis Charlie Hebdo

The disgusting slaughter carried out yesterday by followers of the prophet remind us all that we must stiffen our resolve to protect freedom of expression. We can NEVER compromise our principles in the face of the sensitivities of barbarians. For too long in the United Kingdom, we have censored ourselves in the hope that by doing so we might pacify them. Politicians passed laws to imprison those who give offence in online posts. We allowed our language to be perverted by standing quietly by as terms such as 'Islamaphobia' were thrown at anyone who had the nerve to criticise Muslims or Muslim criminals. Our police force failed to prosecute the abusers of young girls in Oldham, Oxford, and a dozen other places because Muslim gangs were involved. It would compromise 'communities' apparently. We have been cowed by deference for their sensibilities. No more. Live here. Live like we do. Je Suis Charlie Hebdo. Vous sont Charlie Hebdo. Tout le monde est Charlie Hebdo.
