就在法国巴黎查理周刊恐怖袭击导致12人死亡事件发生的当天。美国天主教联盟主席Bill Donohue 发表声明。标题为“穆斯林应该愤怒”（MUSLIMS ARE RIGHT TO BE ANGRY）全文如下：

公然以屠杀报复挑衅必须毫不含糊地予以谴责。在巴黎发生的事情是不可容忍的。但是激发这起暴力事件的是查理周刊对宗教的不容忍，他们的行为同样不可容忍。

查理周刊有一个很长的令人作呕的历史。他们的行为远远超出了对公众形象的嘲讽。特别是针对宗教人物。他们画修女自慰，教皇戴安全套，默罕默德摆出色情的姿态。

有些穆斯林反对描绘先知默罕默德，但有人并不反对。可兰经并不禁止描绘先知。激起穆斯林一致愤怒的是查理周刊描绘先知的方式。他们反对的是长期以来查理周刊一直在这样作。在这一点上，我本人完全支持穆斯林。

查理周刊的发行人Stephane Charbonnier今天也被杀了。很糟糕的是他不理解他在这场屠杀中扮-演的角色。2012年有人问他为何要侮辱穆斯林，他回答说“因为默罕默德对我来说并非神圣。”。如果他没那么自恋，他应该还活着。穆罕默德对我来说也不神圣。但是我绝对不会想到要故意去糟蹋穆罕默德来侮辱穆斯林。

法国的反天主教艺术人挑衅天主教也引发了我的多次抗议。我没有想到要动用暴力。但是这并不能使他们的挑衅化为乌有。美国开国元勋James Medison 说过“滥用自由就是损害自由。滥用权力就是损害权力。”。

Bill Donohue comments on the killing of 12 people at the Paris office of the newspaperCharlie Hebdo:

Killing in response to insult, no matter how gross, must be unequivocally condemned. That is why what happened in Paris cannot be tolerated. But neither should we tolerate the kind of intolerance that provoked this violent reaction.

Those who work at this newspaper have a long and disgusting record of going way beyond the mere lampooning of public figures, and this is especially true of their depictions of religious figures. For example, they have shown nuns masturbating and popes wearing condoms. They have also shown Muhammad in pornographic poses.

While some Muslims today object to any depiction of the Prophet, others do not. Moreover, visual representations of him are not proscribed by the Koran. What unites Muslims in their anger againstCharlie Hebdo is the vulgar manner in which Muhammad has been portrayed. What they object to is being intentionally insulted over the course of many years. On this aspect, I am in total agreement with them.

Stephane Charbonnier, the paper’s publisher, was killed today in the slaughter. It is too bad that he didn’t understand the role he played in his tragic death. In 2012, when asked why he insults Muslims, he said, “Muhammad isn’t sacred to me.” Had he not been so narcissistic, he may still be alive. Muhammad isn’t sacred to me, either, but it would never occur to me to deliberately insult Muslims by trashing him.

Anti-Catholic artists in this country have provoked me to hold many demonstrations, but never have I counseled violence. This, however, does not empty the issue. Madison was right when he said, “Liberty may be endangered by the abuses of liberty as well as the abuses of power.”
