PARIS, Nov 27 (Reuters) - Six teenagers go on trial behind closed doors on Monday, accused of involvement in the beheading of French history teacher Samuel Paty by a suspected Islamist in 2020 in an attack that struck at the heart of the country’s secular values.

The teacher had shown his pupils cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad in a class on freedom of expression, angering a number of Muslim parents. Muslims believe that any depiction of the Prophet is blasphemous.

    Everyone says this bullshit until it’s their group causing the problems and then all of a sudden they deserve mercy and understanding for how complex their situation is.

    Most Muslims are decent people. If they weren’t, the west would be in a continuous state of violence. People like you are just racist assholes looking for any excuse to justify your prejudice.

    You don’t get to judge an entire group by the worst members without it coming back to bite you in the ass some day.

      If I were part of a religion that is so extrem that is killing people and attacking members of the LGBT community, etc, I would 100% leave said religion/group. Its not really that hard to do it. A decent person wouldn’t be a part of those kind of groups.

          Once again a stupid analogy. I can’t be not a citizen of any country. You can be not a member of any religion.

            You can choose to leave a country and join a different one. But you haven’t, so you belong to it.

            But your thought processes are clearly blocked. I’m certainly not going to try to open them. Closed minds are boring.

            You wouldn’t give a shit if you did. Most of my Muslim friends aren’t religious at all, pro-LGBT and everything. They still get shat on by racist fucks like you. You don’t care about people.

            And your education has sadly failed you in teaching you what an analogy is.

            An analogy is a comparison. I wasn’t comparing, just trying to teach you a basic logical thought process. Don’t worry, I’ve given up on that. I can see why your teachers failed. Prejudice is a hell of an intelligence blocker.

        Oh so you have the whole world figured out now? Collective punishment is for fascists.

        Fucking piece of shit. You’re no different from the intolerant people you hate so much.
