I half agree with the popes statement, as part of free speech people are allowed to defend their beliefs as much as people are allowed to insult them. HOWEVER...defend you beliefs with words not violence, as Phillip Defranco put it (and im paraphrasing here) "if you insult me I have the right to tell you your wrong and an idiot, I dont have the right to go and punch you in the face for insulting me".
the attacks on Charlie Hebo are entirely unjustified...no matter what people say about you, your religion, your race, gender, or anything else you have no right to murder them.
Oh and if you do the Streisand Effect with happen and you'll look far worse then then people you attacked.
