From Espresso: The attacks that left three men dead and five injured in Copenhagen this weekend followed a chillingly familiar pattern. Just as in Paris last month, the first targets were protagonists of free speech; the second, local Jews. One man was shot dead on Saturday afternoon at an arts centre during a debate on “Art, Blasphemy and the Freedom of Expression”, attended by a Swedish cartoonist who had lampooned the Prophet Muhammad (the cartoonist was unscathed). Shortly after midnight a second man was murdered outside the city’s synagogue. Police shot and killed the gunman, who they say was Danish-born, early on Sunday. What happens next also looks likely to follow the Parisian script. By yesterday afternoon several thousand Copenhageners had signed up for an anti-terrorism rally today. A decade after Denmark’s “cartoon crisis”, begun by a newspaper’s depictions of Muhammad, Danes appear as committed as ever to free speechhttp://econ.st/1DW5MHo
