OMG!!! You are such a fucking asshole and you are proving everything I always have thought about you was right!!! We have posted nothing but the truth about the enemies of America. Yet you want to censor that.

Do you see now why those of you who call the panties on the head torture are so out to lunch? Can you even look at these photos of true torture? They are sickening. Now compare them to the pictures of Abu Ghraib.

Why can Ty allow photos of US soldiers smiling over dead Iraqis but not Iraqis smiling over dead bodies of Americans? Why, Ty, why?

No need to answer. I know why.

You are a moron. I didn't censor anything -- I asked for comments about my non-censorship. [A few weeks ago,] There were pictures out of Fallujah of burnt corpses that would turn your stomach. I replaced those with a link -- which is hardly a form of censorship. If you look at the board FAQ, you will see that it says:

• At present we only allow posting of explicit images on the Adult Board. Explicit images include those that have nudity or that depict graphic violence. If you intend to post such images on any board other than the Adult Board, you MUST post a link to the image, rather than posting the image itself, with a CLEAR explanation of what the link will lead to.

I think the pictures that you and Gin Rummy posted are explicit, and are not things that people will want on their screen in an office, but I was hoping to get more feedback tonight.

Has anyone posted pictures of dead Iraqis here? I don't remember them, but I think the same standard applies.
