I applaud Huffington Post for printing these. Personally I find many of the cartoons offensive. I certainly found the Piss Christ and Mary in dung 'art' offensive, as did many others. However I don't think anyone was killed over their offense. There were protests, especially since tax money was given by the National Endowment of the Arts. Still, no attempts on anyone's lives.

Considering that yesterday a German publication was firebombed and another I think in Denmark was evacuated for a bomb threat, says some are just determined.

All Danish papers, with the exception of the original source of the cartoons, republished those cartoons. (http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/01/09/us-france-shooting-denmark-idUSKBN0KI0WD20150109)

Something worth the time to read, though long.
