My thoughts are this:
CJ claims they're doing this to spread the word about the horrible things that go on in this world today. So what are they doing to make the world a better place?
We all know CJ isn't a non-profit site. Their purpose isn't to educate the world. Their purpose is to make money. And videos like this, or the beheading video, or the projects suicide video bring in traffic. And traffic = money, no matter what Marc Womack said in his post.
CJ's trying to make the world a better place by posting these videos? Bullshit. How about CJ makes the world a better place by donating a nice cut of their profit to a non-profit animal shelter? How about they start a memorial fund for the beheading victim or the man who committed suicide.
They won't. CJ cares sweet fuck all about educating the public as to the evils of the world. They're not looking to make the world a better place. They're looking to make *their* world a better place by increasing their profits.

Support the censorship of CJ and you set a dangerous precedent.
THIS video is too shocking, let's ban it. Well, lots of news items are just as horrific, graphic and shocking. If you censor this on then we must censor those ones, otherwise it is selective prosecution. We can't have that.
So the news networks better watch out. They can't show anything too disturbing either, otherwise we will have to start levying fines against them to teach them a lesson.
No one needs to know about the horrors of reality going on in the world, nor should they be allowed to see it even if they want to.
Censorship! More censorship!! Vive la censorship!!
