Tennessee, illegal to post "distressing" images online. Get jail time.

The Kevin Cosgrove 911 call is very disturbing. Somehow I missed it, just listened to it yesterday.

I'm not even gonna bother to search it, I learned my lesson from two girls one cup

I really wish I would have paid better attention to your post. All I can say is yuck, yuck and more yuck. I believe in freedom of speech but I really wish it was a bit more difficult to see videos like that. They become viral and you know that millions of kids are watching this stuff.

I'm sure this is protect the children. You can't argue with that.

Gun laws to protect the children.
Taxes to feed the children.

I say we need to fire the govt. to protect the children.

Oh dear God....you just can't unsee shit like that. I hope my kids never have to see anything like that, but I am against the gov't passing legislation mandating that it cannot be posted online.

Wait a sec - I didn't say anything about more legislation but a warning before the image is displayed would be nice.

LOL, I know you didn't say anything about more legislation...but this thread is about TN's passing legislation banning this type of thing. I was merely stating that I'm against THAT type of legislation :-)

Yes, me to. The definition is very vague and broad. It makes me wonder if there are lawyers behind this because it will allow them to file more lawsuits as well.

Man, that 3 guys 1 hammer thing makes me weep for our species.

Unfortunately, that is on par with several slaughterhouse videos I have seen.

[sgreger1]

Wait can someone briefly describe this 3 guys 1 hammer thing? I have a feeling it is some kind of gruesome macabre gay porn vid trying to top 3 girls one cup so I won't be watching it, but was wondering exactly what they are doing with the hammer in question? lol.

Human cruelty is all around us. Fortunately, the kindness usually outweighs the cruelty most of the time.

Probably, but I can't help feeling that the horrors which are happening elsewhere are latent in all of us i.e. it wouldn't take much to tip it over the edge.

I still cannot believe I was born just 25 years after the worst human slaughter in the history of the world.

No, its not. Yes, human nature can be terrible but it also has the capacity to be quite kind. My guess is for every terrible act, there are a hundred kind ones. Its just much easier to focus on the terrible ones.

If you want proof of this, 99.9% of us are probably disgusted when we see videos like the hammer guy and would have stopped those kids in a second if we had the chance to.

And this is what they are dying and killing for in Iraq, Afganistan, Yemen, and Libya...
