Today's selection of cartoons looks at Charlie Hebdo's special edition; the Oregon occupiers; and Donald Trump vs. Kim Jong-un.
Assuredly I don't want to diminish the horror of the attacks on magazine Charlie Hebdo in January, 2015; the writers and cartoonists didn't deserve a death sentence for being provocative. However, being a provocateur has its price. The New York Post reports Charlie Hebdo marks attack anniversary with scathing special edition with a photo of the edition's front cover; the Washington Post reports Associated Press removes images of God-as-terrorist Charlie Hebdo cover.
Remember the Bundy standoff in Nevada in 2014 over cattle grazing fees? Now his son and stalwart supporters have occupied a federal building in Oregon. There's more about the situation in Oregon Occupiers to Face Charges When Siege Ends: Sheriff.
Provocateur Kim Jong-un is scaring everyone. Take a look at this headline: Why even a failed test makes North Korea’s nuclear arsenal scarier. Even scarier than that is D. Trump confronting Kim Jong-un. O.K., maybe a little funny, too.
