"In France, we always have the right to write and draw. And if some people are not happy with this, they can sue us and we can defend ourselves. That's democracy. You don't throw bombs, you discuss, you debate. But you don't act violently. We have to stand and resist pressure from extremism"

Best of luck with that, France.

Update: So much for democracy--the French are closing 20 premises due to threats following the publication of "offensive" 'toons.
