[One parent at the school said the cartoon was taken
from Charlie Hebdo, the French satirical magazine
that was attacked in 2015 by Islamist terrorists
who killed 12 people in Paris.
A teacher has been suspended and the school
was forced to apologise, admitting the image was "totally inappropriate".]

The irony.

Someone has a death wish

Why should he have been suspended, and why should the school apologize? We're not living under blasphemy laws.

I just hope he stays safe, we've seen what happens to teachers who show cartoons which annoy them...

Interesting how the protesters are okay with following a text that is full of violence and hatred, but showing a cartoon of a dead paedo is what crosses the line...

But the Teacher didn't do anything wrong?

The teacher is now in hiding, are we living in the West or in some regime?

I'm just glad islam is the religion of peace, or I'd be really worried about his safety...

That mob should have been dispersed by police, what’s wrong with complaining by email or over the phone

There will be Strict Muslims that
want that Teacher killed.


Some kids that were in that class
will let the Strict Muslims
know who that Teacher is.

[The protesters, all Muslim men, are angry

people never learn i see


i mean attacks like the charlie hepdo office one, or another teacher beheading in france even more recently


one would think we would all be more careful regarding prophet muhammad




Islam, according to koran is ''anti-terrorism'' so if this teacher gets any death threats it are radical extremists, like i said many times before and i still stand by my opinion on this, these sicko's are a disgrace for their own religion too whom i don't count as muslims myself (the real muslims are the victims here as well, who get verbal and physical abuse cuz of the actions of those terrorist lunatics)

Even if their religious texts were anti-terrorism, what actually matters is how they're interpreted and enacted in the world. And the way they're currently being followed is rather pro-terror, and anti-freedom.

The teacher knew exactly what he was doing and what it would stir up. It was obviously premeditated. It's a long time since I did anything close to religious education (it wasn't big in Scotland ) but, is it appropriate to mock any religion in a RE class - i don't think so

That aside, the point has been made. Those with strong religious beliefs think they can tear down our democracy if it conflicts with their religion and that has to be stamped out quickly

We don't know the context he used the image though? I doubt after what happened in France he wanted to stir up controversy!

If you were in a religious studies class, would you expect your religion to be mocked? Don't get me wrong, i'm all for it, but I wouldn't expect it to be validated by the school. He obviously knew that, it's an emotive cartoon. I feel certain he did it knowingly to raise the issue in the community

It doesn't matter why he did it, he should be able to show a satirical drawing without his life being endangered and the only apologies being made are for his actions.
