Pakistan school shooting

[summer]

Pictures from The Atlantic.  Not for the faint of heart.  Fucking animals. 

After Pakistan Attack

I'm not looking, but they showed video of the school on news hour and it was terrifying and heartbreaking.

In related news, I have to be quicker with the remote after the kid shows end, because this is not something I want to have to talk about with the kids yet.

Awful and heartbreaking.

[erbear]

I don't think I want to look at that. Right?

Why is it ok to show these when we wouldn't show Newtown?

This would be my way of saying these pictures are not ok, by the way.

I don't even know what to say.

Oh my goodness. I did not think of that.

Not to be a pain in the ass but I'm bumping this because it's the morning and more people are here.

Can someone actually answer my question? Because I can't figure out the answer and it's really bothering me.

I don't believe the media ever saw the crime scene at Newtown, so no photos were made public.  I'm sure the parents had a say in that, too.  Obviously Pakistan does things differently.

Holy shit. I'm physically sick. That was hard to see. Omg the blood. Wtf.

I wonder why they're shown and not new town. Both public schools. Was it because one is an army school? Maybe they want to show the horror and carnage in hopes of not whitewashing things. Idk, honestly. Good question Lauren.

I don't think I can handle looking but this situation is heartbreaking.
