Hi everyone,
Here is the infamous cartoon that suggests that the dead migrant toddler Alan Kurdi would have grown up to be a sex attacker.

*********
After a year in which it has never been far from the headlines, French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo is back in the news again -- this time for a cartoon that critics say pushes its provocative brand of humor too far.
The publication has sparked outrage for a cartoon that suggests drowned toddler Alan Kurdi -- the 3-year-old Syrian boy whose death in September triggered a global wave of sympathy for migrants -- would have grown up to be a sexual molester of the type blamed for a recent wave of mob sex assaults in Cologne, Germany.

In poor taste... what?!
Cheers.

SICK! >:(

Did they use phrenology to come to this conclusion?

The point of the cartoon was to highlight the hypocrisy of the attitude of some of the media (and hence popular opinion).

I'm aware of that, and suspect that Floo was also aware of it.

Dear Sriram,
What Rhiannon just said, but my immediate reaction on seeing the cartoon yesterday was the same as Floo's, SICK, and I still can't get that thought out of my head.
Gonnagle.

The whole situation's a pretty sick one. Charlie Hebdo's job is to reflect our sickness back to ourselves, not to avoid it.

That rag again! Look, so the fact is some of these refugee men were involved in the sexual attacks on women during New Years celebrations in Germany, Sweden possibly Finland. That it was pointed out these perverts were recent arrivals from the Muslim world, irks the idiots at that rag. So they want to accuse everybody of thinking little boys from Syria are going to attack women in Europe when they get older. Few think that but the majority obviously do at that rag. A rag only worth using for a puppy not house trained yet and needs paper to poop on.
