Well, it isn’t Truth or Dare, and it’s only a woman being killed, so I suppose that’s OK w/some. I have to agree w/those objecting to this. It’s a video of a man murdering a woman. I don’t think it “opens eyes” to such a practice, because we know these things happen; rather, it’s sensationalism, clicks, and profits.

Facebook ‘irresponsible’ over beheading videos, says PM

bbc.co.uk

“The BBC was alerted to the fact that such content was back online by a reader who said the firm was refusing to remove a page showing a clip of a masked man killing a woman, which is believed to have been filmed in Mexico.

“It was posted last week under the title, Challenge: Anybody can watch this video?

“However, since some people object to graphic video of this nature, we are working to give people additional control over the content they see. This may include warning them in advance that the image they are about to see contains graphic content.”

So, giving a warning to 13 yr olds is just going to make them want to see it more.

I may be old, but I remember wanting to see stuff I probably should not have seen at 13 In fact, I wouldn’t even want to see it now. Why would anyone? Why would anyone with any sense of decency want to see a victim being brutalized and killed in this manner? Are we becoming so desensitized it’s just a routine viewing for some people?
