Personally I don't see why it should be treated as somehow different from the portrayal of any other nasty act. Yes it's horrible, yes it's bad, but so what? Nobody on this thread is claiming that the movie Kill Bill (which y'all might recall is nothing but a wall-to-wall bloodbath of gratuitious violence that serves no purpose except to amuse and excite the audience) puts people at a greater risk of being brutally cut up or gunned down just because it portrays extreme violence as a fun event to be applauded.
And meanwhile if we start banning stories because of content people object to, I'm afraid I'd have to ask for about half the archive to be deleted as being too offensive for me
