The way "The Terror Of War" By Nick Ut has been censored is an obscenity.

It's symptomatic of where political correctness can take you if the world closes its eyes or just shrugs. Little by little, like that dripping tap, its consequences can be catastrophic on freedom, common sense, basic rights to free speech and, not to be forgotten, the very power of society to think for itself.

The thin end of the wedge of totalitarianism, then.

As Slobodan posits: when everyone thinks the same, no-one thinks. And I'd add: by then, it's too late.

Waht we seen now is that Apple and Facebook, etc are  defining for many what is 'appropriate' to show and what not.
Nudity always have been a problem for the US... violence not.
