More appalling news from Nice.

"Nice Mayor Christian Estrosi said that three people were confirmed dead, and that the attacker repeatedly shouted “Allahu Akbhar,” or “God is greatest” in Arabic."

And now we wonder. What are we allowed to say about this?

Is this a hate crime or hate incident?

Are we allowed to discuss the links between terrorism and fundamentalist Islam? Are we allowed to be critical of the Israeli state? Or because this will risk offending some, all discussion is forbidden, even in our own homes?

Not all men are violent to women. But the vast majority of people violent to women are men.

Not all religious people support violence and murder as a tribute to their god.

But those who do - we have to be able to talk about this.

Any person, any group, who thinks they have a right to kill someone because they are offended by a cartoon, has zero justification and should be given zero tolerance.

If its 'hate' to say this police, please DM and I will give you my identity gladly.
