I fucking will.

Terrible, terrible shit going on in Paris.

#JeSuisCharlie if it's on Twitter.

Why is OP BU? I'm guessing this is a supportive picture to show solidarity with the victims.

Je suis is French for 'I am'.

You should have posted that link in the OP then - can't expect everyone to know what it's about!

What an awful thing to happen - these terrorist killings are dreadful, so wrong. RIP all the people killed in this latest attack. :(

Maybe she assumed everyone was up to date with current affairs? Why didn't you ask what the photo was for if you didn't know?

Why on earth would this be unreasonable?

Surely people are aware of the huge news story going on at the moment?

That was to Toystory.

And no, magpie, sometimes these things don't permeate everyone's daily lives. I'm sure there was a mention of it on tonight's news, I doubt Australia would have ignored it completely especially given the café tragedy before Christmas, but I didn't see it.

YANBU. I am proud to stand with Charlie Hebdo, Paris, and all those who stand up for freedom. Je suis Charlie.

I assumed that everyone would be familiar with this major story and wish to express their horror and sympathy

at 2 in the afternoon when by far the majority of people are at work and don't have automatic access to the news? I've just seen it because I check the headlines at the end of my day but otherwise wouldn't have seen it till 10pm. I don't think that's unusual.

Of course it's dreadful but I don't understand the relevance of the OP's photograph or what possible good it will do to pass it on. What does that achieve? Can anyone explain?

Precisely silver.
It's easy to show solidarity behind a screen, not so if one lives or works in the 11ieme.
