It verifies the narrative. I didn't want to see the guy that was shot in the back while running away from a police officer but without that video the "official" narrative is likely different than what happened.

We get it. Some people are happier to just let CNN watch it and then tell them what they should think about it.

Did the lack of videos for Sandy Hook or the presence of video's from 9/11 change the narrative, some are still going to question their own eyes and after all we do have news media.

I’m guessing they are doing this for the same reason as child porn videos, you are not only witnessing a crime but are indulging in a crime and become part of the criminal act by spreading it.

Consider this section of history:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phan_Thi_Kim_Phuc


(for those who don't want to click the link, it is the Viet Nam Napalm Girl)



Would it have been right for the Nixon administration to quash it, to imprison people for having that picture?

Just because one was right that obviously does not mean all are. Who gets to decide?

But I answered your question.

I'm as much of an atheist as you can get-but Christianity and Islam are not comparable.

As an atheist a true Christian will pray for me. A devout Islamist will cut my head off.
Christianity includes the Old Testament. You are too young to remember the Inquisition, Grasshopper.

None of the devout Muslims I know will cut your head off. Relax.
