A French court on Friday convicted six teenagers in connection with the 2020 beheading of history teacher Samuel Paty, whose murder shocked the country.

The teacher had shown his pupils caricatures of the Prophet Mohammad in a class on freedom of expression, angering some Muslim parents. Most Muslims avoid depictions of prophets, considering them to be blasphemous.

    Seriously. There isn’t a single other cult in the world at this level of insanity where kids go about bheading their teacher because of a picture. Says everything you need to know.

      It’s not the cult, it’s the interpretation some maniacs make of it.

      Remember how Christians “pacified” entire populations here and there in Africa and the whole american continent. Doesn’t look good either 😏
