Watch Online: The Million people march in Paris

[Statistikhengst]

Estimates are not at well over 1,500,000 in Paris and another 1.5 millions in cities and towns outside of Paris.

There have also been demonstrations elsewhere:

This has been seen a lot today in Germany. The text you see is Article 5 of the German Constitution, the German equivalent of our 1st Amendment: Jeder hat das Recht, seine Meinung in Wort, Schrift und Bild frei zu äußern und zu verbreiten. Each person has the right to express and disseminate his opinion in speech, writing and images.

This is outside of the French Embassy in Berlin. "We are all Charlie".

Three men in Berlin, in solidarity at a large demo at the Pariser Platz, running simultaneously with the DEMO in Paris.

That is Pariser Platz. In the background: the Brandenburg Gate.

A supporter in Moscow.

'Back to Germany: that pic is from a smaller East German town called Erlangen. Bill Clinton visited Erlangen in the late 1990s as President.

I am not sure where this is from. Anyone recognize this school?

Expression of sorrow in Germany. The city is not indicated, but I think it is Berlin.

France24 is reporting that this is the first event they can remember in history in that city where the public applauded like wild FOR the police, including the entourage of police helicopters.

350,000 in Lyons (the third largest city in France). That is 30% of the city's population.
I've been to Lyon, hot as hell in the summer, nice old Colliseum in the city.

Even Charles the Great mourns:

My wife makes a point.... What better place for a terrorist? to which I replied, "If I even remotely looked Middle Eastern, I would be in hiding today."

Perhaps. And yet, many Jews look very "middle-eastern".

There have been a number of Islamic groups that have participated in the rallies throughout Europe. I am not going to make a value judgement about it, just recognize it as fact.

Estimates are up to 1.7 million in Paris and well over 2 million throughout the rest of France.

Berlin, 11.01.2015, Moment of silence at the offices of DIE WELT, Berlin:

Incredible write-up about today's events before they actually got underway:

Je suis Charlie Der Wille zur Freiheit l sst sich nicht brechen - DIE WELT

"Better to die standing than to live on your knees".

Yes, what better place for a terrorist attack, where are those radical Muslims now?
