I am Paul

There’s been a lot of international attention in Paris lately over the shooting of cartoonists. I usually don’t tend to comment too much on the news as often not all facts to the argument are presented; which can misguide the observer’s opinion. It’s often hard to actually find out about what happened when everyone is taking about the latest developments. I didn’t know until googling the story as to whether Charlie was an individual or a company name. However, this does seem like a blatant act of terrorism. No-one knows the exact motives; whether financial, political or prejudicial; and no-one will know unless the perpetrators are caught, questioned and co-operate truthfully with their answers. And that's only if the suspects choose to. Until then, we can only speculate. But if people are assigning blame to the nanny state complaining that this could have been prevented; they need to remember that if everything can be prevented, then nothing will happen. And that means Christmas too.
