Max-- You are now my GOD. That's one of the most wonderful things I've ever read in my life.
Mbo-- I don't think people are really desensitized--especially not by fiction or near fiction. If anything has the power to truly desensitize people, I think it's the news.
Anyway--
I'm all for unrestricted free speech in general, and common sense warnings wouldn't bother me. Of course, people seem to be offended by more and more stuff these days, and we certainly can't warn about everything, so I say to hell with it. Ditto on Bill D's comment above.
Peace--Keli
