    For those of you who are interested, I have a .pdf version on my computer. But I basically don't know how/where to put it to create a torrent?

    I checked on most torrent websites and it isn't available yet.

    If someone is interested in reading it or whatever please just tell me how to get it online and i'll do it.

    Wait...you're going to pirate their magazine instead of signing up for an online subscription. Not only rob them of their subscription fees, but broadcast here that you are doing it.

    Charlie Hebdo is not free; it's like $5 per issue.

    Maybe it isn't available as a torrent anywhere, because no one wants to rob them right now.

    For those who want to donate: the Charlie Hebdo website is taking donations right now. Use Google Translate to navigate their front page if you want to donate.

    You got me wrong my friend. I'm just trying to help people out. Had no idea that foreigners had access to their online subscription and didn't want to help the crazy people selling copies on ebay.

    Was just trying to help those who couldn't get the magazine.

    Had no idea it was accessible overseas.

    Good luck then.

    And for your information I didn't pirate them at all. A friend works there and sent me and others a pdf version because he knew we wouldn't get to see it.

    Anyways, delete thread then.

    People are outraged over a Charlie Hebdo cover characterizing Hurricane Harvey victims as neo-Nazis

    [​IMG]

    A French satirical magazine famous for its provocative and inflammatory cartoons was met with backlash on Thursday after it released a cover that characterized Hurricane Harvey victims as neo-Nazis.

    The cover for its Friday magazine showed an image of drowning limbs saluting Nazi flags, accompanied by the text: "God exists. He drowned all the neo-Nazis of Texas."

    Magazine that creates provocative and inflammatory covers creates another provocative and inflammatory cover.

    This is newsworthy?

    The stereotyping and generalizing is easier to notice when it's about you rather than some other people. Stupidity is not immune from being called out just because it is trying to be "satire" or "provocative."

    Well, that's very insensitive to the millions of innocents affected by a natural disaster. That's as far as I'll express my outrage. Now I'll continue on with my life as usual.

    This editorial and those behind it should be free to speak their minds without the threats/fears of violence...but the way they get celebrated is downright disgusting. The claim is false on so many levels, but even then it is just so insensitive and grotesque on it's own.

    Bunch of assholes. Just a matter of time before the cartoons of Charlie Hebdo getting shot up start popping up.

    Disgusting. They don't deserve to be shot, but they deserve to go out of business. People who think like this have no business being published in any format.
