On 7 January 2015, two Islamist gunmen forced their way into and opened fire in the Paris headquarters, killing twelve
Reports say the gunmen shouted “God is great” and “the Prophet is avenged” during the shooting

It is believed that cartoons like this caused the response of the Islamist gunmen. The word balloon reads "100 lashes if you don't die of laughter!"
