In the aftermath of the Paris terrorist attacks, I ‘liked’
a Facebook infographic that said “Je Suis Charlie”.
I now regret my impulsive action. The attack was abhorrent and I wanted to show my
support for free speech. But, I don’t
identify with Charlie Hebdo any more than I identify with Fox News or the
infamous Nazi march in Skokie.
Je suis Charlie Hebdo? I think not
Je suis more like the cop that got shot
Charlie’s satire was crude
Both offensive and rude
Ahmed died for their right to write rot
#JeSuisAhmed
