COPENHAGEN, Denmark Public figures across Europe and beyond on Sunday condemned the attack by an unidentified gunman against a free speech event and a synagogue in Copenhagen that left three people dead, including the suspected perpetrator. Investigators in the Danish capital say the gunman could have been inspired by the terror attacks in Paris last month, in which three Islamic radicals killed 17 people at the Charlie Hebdo newspaper, a kosher grocery store and elsewhere. <\/p>\n
Here's a look at some of the reactions to the events in Copenhagen: <\/p>\n
\"Denmark has been hit by terror.\" <\/p>\n
\"As a nation we have experienced a few hours that we will never forget. We have tasted the nasty taste of fear and powerlessness that the terrorists want us to taste.\" <\/p>\n
\"We do not know the motive for the alleged perpetrator's actions, but we know that there are forces that want to hurt Denmark. They want to rebuke our freedom of speech.\" - Danish Prime Minister Helle Thorning-Schmidt. <\/p>\n
