Hhhmmm - this is a car acdident.

They happen every day - the images are aweful and eye opening - but they are reality and you don't have to look if you choose not to... but they are in conetxt.

Life is in context.

Maybe having spent a year as a firefighter when I was 18 years old, hardened me to this sight - one never get "used" to seeing charred bodies... but you come to accept tem as part of being a fragile human being in a rought harsh world.
You have children, right? How would you feel if they were killed and their mutilated bodies were photographed and splashed across the internet?
