<p>[QUOTE="Snowman Cometh, post: 10392561, member: 83302"]The things I've seen online, I can never unsee. Years ago when I was living in NYC, they had 2 cable access channels that anyone could send in videos and they'd be shown. I was recording a clips show and they had a NY politician who was being indicted. He comes into the press room, pulls out a gun, puts it in his mouth and kills himself. The camera didn't move. It stayed right on him. It looked like nothing until the camera started closing in on his face, and all of a sudden the blood flowed out his nose like a water faucet had been turned on. My mouth dropped open, and I immediately recorded over that clip. I've since seen much worse. </p><p><br /></p><p>The problem with this kind of video violence today is, in my time we had things like Andy Griffith, The Monkees, Donna Reed Show, Bewitched, shows, films and music with either some type of moral code or so deeply hidden a young person wouldn't get the negativity. Today, you have uber video violence and nothing moral to fall back on. So, the violence is the norm, and it's everywhere.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
