I think we should rape your asshole until
you see the light. Or choke up some blood.
Whichever comes first.

I really wish to hell that I knew what
mine was in response to. I believe that
'twas something deserving of that retort,
if only in my drunken stupor.

People who post such videos do everyone a favour by incriminating themselves.

No, he didn't.  There are no deleted posts from this thread in the deleted posts forum.  Nobody posted anything that was deserving of that retort, IMO.

I don't like watching videos of people or animals getting killed or butchered. But as long as there is a warning so i don't have to see it, then whatever. Obviously, there is none of that going on at the site, else i would just leave. Except for, i think it was RobertN's post about suicide where it was clearly lableled that the clip was a bit horrific.
Anyway, i vote that these things should be decided on a case by case situation.

That clip was presented in a documentary manner AND it was from a news camera, therefore I don't have a problem with it.

I'm talking about teenagers running around a beating people up/killing them just for kicks.

I think that I actually remember seeing that on a network. 

I'm mainly concerned with amateur videos depicting and/or glorifying obviously illegal acts.

And images of vulnerable populations (e.g. kids, animals, retarded people) should be given special consideration.  If, for instance, someone posted a "hidden camera" clip from dateline about mental patients being abused or something similar for discussion, I wouldn't have a problem with that.  But, if someone posted an amateur video of two 12-year-olds having sex that would need to be removed. 

Again, I think that each situation would present unique challenges and should be decided on an individual basis.

There was the hostage guy who got is head cut off with a 6" knife a few years ago. It took me a long time to stop to thinking about that ( the audio as well.) I don't like that sort of thing.
And i watched one a few days ago where a man cut a piglet's head off with a chainsaw. Then he starts posing for the camera while the piglet's body is still kicking around in the background.
I didn't like that. I'd like to do things to that cunt.

Yeah, I remember those beheading videos.  I had a coworker who was fascinated by them.  I refused to watch them at all because doing so would support the terrorists' actions.

I don't know about the pig - it's been mentioned on WP.
