The information isn't being reported in any way that endorses or glorifies violence of the sort.
This is little more than blaming the messenger.

I knew there would be comments like this and that's what I was looking for because to tell you the truth, I don't know completely where I stand either. I would hate to say no to any information now matter how horrifying.
The big problem with the media though is, they play it to death to make money. That's all. Not to inform or enlighten, not to help us. To make money. If it bleeds it leads, etc.
That's where the problem starts for me. It's explotation of our culture for the almightly dollar.
That's what begs the above question or statement of responsibility to be asked.
