And guess where it was passed along to, CJ.
do you think its cool for cops to gigle at surveillance videos the find, and feel it funny enough to pass it on to their favorite site?
That kids death, although caugh on a security cam, should not have been released to the public, yet it made its way on to the pigs favorite site.

Cops laugh at the videos of black kids shooting themselves, in fact, cops love the videos so much they feel they should be shared (illegally) and sent to sites like CJ.
fun stuff when cops use videos of death for fun and probably profit.

Maybe you understood her point because you know her personally on a deeper level, but in the two lines I quoted from her, it seems that her point is that we're hypocritical if we're saying one video is worse than the others (which is further supported by her reply to me).
Personally, I'm disgusted by CJ posting any of the aforementioned videos. I'm disgusted by the videos themselves as well. I don't support CJ releasing and profiting from any of those videos.
The point I was making is that of the reasoning behind the videos. The Iraqis didn't behead someone thinking "Praise Allah if this video makes it on to CJ!". The kid didn't commit suicide thinking "I'm gonna do this so I can finally get on CJ!". The kids who burned the cat most likely were thinking along those lines.
cherrylula, the video is wrong no matter what the reason. It's a disgusting video, as are the beheading and suicide videos. I'm not saying one is worse than the other as that's a matter of opinion. I'm simply saying that while I may not agree with the suicide or beheading videos, at least (in my opinion) the reason behind them is justifiable.
