OAS, with that logic, everything should be televised. Executions, children getting molested, Women getting raped in alleys, and so on.
In regards to violence, I think we're far from sheltered. The fact that if Seph really wanted, he could get this video tonight, shows that if people want to see anything no matter how vile, they can get it. By pushing it down people's throat on the 6 o'clock news, it's not going to teach or better anyone.
I'm pretty sure that most everyone has an idea what these people can do. Watching what they do isn't going to get me more infomred. Watching them cut this guys head off, isn't going to explain why they hate us or how to combat it. It would make me angrier. But when angry, you do irrational things.
