The Charlie Hebdo attack was a horrific event. The lives of
all those lost were taken too soon, and for what purpose? Because they were
mentally ill? Perhaps it was due to a violent culture surrounding them? Was it
because they were Muslims?
No, no, and no. It's because they were assholes. The rest of
it, their religion included, are all just excuses and ideas used by them to
mask the real reason they did it. They were just assholes. Going around and
pointing fingers at all muslims, or all people with brown skin doesn't do
anything to address the issue of assholes being assholes. In fact, it only
generates more assholes. Spreading bigotry and religious discrimination does
nothing but allow assholes to find new reasons and flags to wave, causes to
point to as they continue to carry out their terrible deeds.
