Charlie Hebdo victimizes free speech.

[IanHulett]

Yes, the terrorists win, but only to the extent that the common defense and civil law enforcement fail to adequately protect those rights. If it is left up to individuals and institutions to fend for themselves then it is only reasonable to allow them to fortify themselves against such attacks, i.e. conceal-carry and licensed security.

So, why not install heightened security? For example metal detectors at every entrance to the building, and hire armed security guards, which IMO is what every major company needs. That way the odds of this happening again are greatly decreased. Nobody needs to censor themselves to stop violence. That's a coward's way out IMO. Hire people who will defend your company's rights, not just lawyers. Sure, it will cost more money, but don't they make a lot of money? They should be able to afford these things.
