it does show respect to the owners of this board.
but that wasn't the problem with your desire to post it, at least my problem with it.
not that it likely matters to you what I think, but I'm gonna give you the benefit of the doubt and assume that you simply hadn't thought the situation through and considered who you would be serving by passing this on or talking it up.
I hope that you get the point as to why it would be wrong to post even if everyone where you post it is eager to watch it. it's beyond a matter of the bad taste of snuff films. it's a matter supporting these killers by saving them the trouble of distributing their own propaganda, and helping to fuel the very reaction they where going for.
making these types of terrorist films doesn't require much in the way of resource, grab any American off any street, a couple guys a cam-corder and a basement and you have a video. very hard to track down and impossible to predict or defend against.
so the only way to stop it from happening again is if it doesn't work. don't watch it, don't pass it on, don't tell others where to get it, explain the consequences to anyone who tries to show it to you and let them know you'd appreciate never having this type of stuff sent to you again.
while you are doing (or not doing )those things keep in mind what they are going for, the only possible motivation. to make you mad, so pissed that you stop thinking, stop controlling yourself, lose your belief in what is acceptable behavior, and begin lashing out like devil they say we are. thats the motive here (unless someone knows another. it's the only one that makes sense to me. any other ideas?) to piss us off to the point of rage, hate and cruelty on par with their own.
they tell a story of who we are and how evil we are and then try to goad us into proving them right. once we give up and surrender our ideals, ignore our laws and sense of decency, they control us and we have lost.
