The Complete and Utter Evil of Self Censorship

If This Doesn't Bring a Tear to Your Eye I Don't Know What Will
This is the inherint problem in the media, for the sake of decency they purpously do not show the violent graphics that come out of war. It's dangerous territory, people will complain their kids saw it, or complain they don't need to see the pure unadulterated gore. Yet when your country is at war, should you have a right to close your eyes? The war is real, people are really dying and losing their homes, and those who may unwittingly be the cause of this death and destruction are hiding from the reality of the war in this manner.
There is no justification for it, when we delibrately hide the reality of war we commit a great evil. Aren't we all in this war together? We ignore the terrors our troops and the people of the country are going through while at the same time we end up with the guts to say 'well people die in war'.
But that's just fact, not reality.
