Maybe some of you grew up in way too sheltered areas, but I've seen people get stabbed in the streets, and I watched the attempted rape of one of my friends on a UW campus.
Maybe more areas would seem sheltered if people didnt stand and watch stabbings and rapes?

The only thing the video of Nick Berg is the least bit similiar to is a Holocaust film - which are usually (if not always) in black and white.

When I was in college, I saw a beheading and its aftermath (on video). I can only hope that I never see such a thing again. This is not the clean fall of a guillitine blade, this is a person - a fellow human - whose head is sawed off while he screams.
I agree with this part!

This wasn't something the French did when King Louis or whatever wanted someone killed. This was a guy taking a knife and cutting his throat side to side until it came off. My friend said you can hear him gargle(sp?) and gasp for air.

That in my opinion is nothing like watching a birth, or anything sex ed could show you.

And while yes, getting stabbed and shot has to suck. I honestly believe this is MUCH MUCH WORSE!
