Damn straight that they did not deserve to die....... but why bother making such an obvious insult to a religion whose membership they fully well know is intolerant of insults? It's totally provocative especially in the context of other behaviors in France which look anti-Islamic.
When you sit down and analyse it, it's not really freedom of speech, it's freedom of stupidity.
My guess is that this just helps to draw a dividing line and pit one side against the other which is exactly what both sides want..... ie both sides want the argument to be fierce so it can escalate.
