I don't know what the Paris gunmen hoped to accomplish with their actions yesterday. I don't think they counted on it backfiring (pun intended) like this, however. I am writer, so of course I subscribe to the notion of power in the Almighty Pen. History has proven time and again that there is something very dangerous about a person who has prodigious skill with words. And these guys just awoke a beast in the heart of every artist in the world.
I shall eagerly await the outcome over the next days, weeks, months and years. It takes an insane amount of bravery to fight terror with laughter. It takes an insane amount of cowardice to face laughter with terror.
Je suis Charlie.
