Don't watch the original thread if you are weak stomached! I was having breakfast but now I can't finish it anymore.
[QUOTE=En-Guage;46414314]hey Parrot417
if the body is dead, you're looking at a sack of meat, a vessel that once contained a human soul. There is no disrespect to that person by quoting an image of their body.[/QUOTE]
I really do not agree with this! Please look at this from a different perspective. Imagine if you were her child. Your mother's been murdered (I'm sure the fact that he explicitly said he was waiting for him to return home makes it even more painful / sadistic), now you get to see your mother's nude corpse plastered across the internet. It's a desecration to me.

How likely is it that the kid is going to find pictures of his mother's corpse on the internet?
[QUOTE=wauterboi;46414329]Sharing the image isn't bad. It could actually bring people closer with a shared reaction of disgust, and it can help people come to terms with the fact that the person is really dead. There's weirdos that get off on that stuff, but sharing the image isn't bad.[/QUOTE]
This has to be one of the strangest things I have read in a while. I can't think of sharing pictures of a murdered body as anything but fucked up, let alone as some kind of bonding experience.
I see what you mean but I was talking about the context of this thread

Uh if he ever googles himself or his mom someday there's a real good chance
Thank you arc nova, without your help this wouldn't be possible.
Still, his time was coming anyway.

Uh, considering he is pretty much at the central point of the event and the images have been filling up twitter as well as hundreds of news sites and forums, as well as the likelihood of litigation / a criminal case which will involve evidence being presented... Extremely high? I live in Australia and have absolutely no connection to the case and I have seen it. Currently 88 people are reading this thread, too.

just getting back to work bud
Yeah I was in that thread, called it bullshit.
Guess I was wrong...
Not surprised, not even disgusted
After being on /b/ for so long you don't even care anymore.
Shame. Hope her son comes out of it all right.
1) He searches the events on google. He is immediately presented with access to the links and the 4chan thread, which (as evidenced here and on twitter where the pics are being posted without warning) are extremely easy to stumble across.
2) They come up in a legal scenario where the images have to be presented.
3) Some sick fucker from 4chan thinks it's a giggle to send the images to him. It's happened a lot.
4) Any other myriad of possibilities. His friends come across them and bring it up, he finds a news article about the event without having intentionally searched it. Statistically speaking, he will see the uncensored thread at some point, considering he's at the center of all this it will never leave him fully; we're all gonna leave in a few days/weeks, this kid has a lifetime to find those images.

remember how people got some robin williams look-a-like photo of some mexican dude that hung himself with a belt just like the description of the police report said and some sick fucks harassed Zelda Williams with it?

Son, have you ever had any friends? Cause that's not what they do
[QUOTE=En-Guage;46414514]Son, have you ever had any friends? Cause that's not what they do[/QUOTE]
Yeah that was a big ol' oversight on my part.
someone linked me this last night just a few mins after it was posted. literally 15 or so mins after he posted the pics i checked the port orchard facebook page and someone had just posted saying there are loads of cop cars at their complex and a body has been found.
i called up the port orchard dispatcher and gave them details from the pictures/body to confirm i wasnt hoax calling, and told them he had posted them online and more importantly he was planning to commit suicide by cop with a BB gun. The woman sounded pretty horrified that he had posted pictures and stuff of the body online, put me through to a detective and i gave them the same info.
was hoping that he was going to try and approach the scene again or something and if they knew it was attempted suicide by cop they would be able to arrest him so he can face what he has done and see what he has done to the boy rather than getting the easy way out.
[QUOTE=Parrot417;46413111]He was a misogynist like most people on /b/
he just decided to take one step further, everyone on /b/ is a potential rapist and murderer.[/QUOTE]
You're right, I sometimes accidentally misclick on /b/ when I meant to click on /v/ and suddenly I get this urge to rape and kill women!
[QUOTE=Arc Nova;46414333]yeah lets bond over a corpse[/QUOTE]
This is oversimplifying what I was saying.
Personally, I feel that people are very quick to push several things into the dark and not deal with them, and I don't necessarily think that can be a good thing. I think people should be reminded of the grim realities of life and the terror that people are able to ensue - that's why there's plenty of photographs about the Rape of Nanking.
I'm not saying people should share the image to their Facebook wall writing, "Hey! Look at this image! Doesn't it make you feel bad? I'm glad we're closer as a community." What I am saying, however, is that it can be used as a lot of things, including a shared disgust that influences people to actually make a change. It can also help create a way to cope with the death, which is why open casket funerals take place. (That's literally bonding over a corpse!)
I also think you're playing a part in strengthening all kinds of stigmas. Personally, I don't think it's a very big deal. Corpses happen. It's natural (and sometimes man-made). You're pushing it into the dark and saying everyone associated with looking at it is "ewwy".

Again, it depends on how you're viewing it. If you're viewing it for fun, then it can be a problem. But if it's a viewing for a cause, then it's fine. Looking at the pictures to see what this guy has done isn't a bad thing.

Didn't they also do it with that one family who's daughter died in a car accident?
What an Awful human being.

I dunno really. I think pictures like the Nanking Massacre do carry a grim message, but I feel that comes more from the scale of what happened rather than simply the pictures of the dead bodies. Like "Jesus christ there are so many dead bodies" rather than leaving me with any lasting indifference towards seeing dead bodies. I also think the pictures being taken so long ago leaves them feeling much more impersonal than something like the OP.
I mean really it just boils down to I am uncomfortable viewing recently dead corpses. Historical pictures I can look at fine, because I feel the individual bodies are not the main thing I should take away from them. I don't really need to see a recently murdered corpse to know that death exists.
Just...why do people have to be like this? It makes me so sad.
Jesus fuck. How do you get so broken that this is even something you might consider?

There's a reason why I like gothic stories and tragedies: it hits hard and the lesson sticks, regardless of whether or not you were ready for it. It has the power to send truths regardless of whether or not you want to believe them.
I have not personally viewed these pictures, because I don't personally need or want to. But to damn the sharing of them? That's crazy.
Having discomfort with the images and with corpses is totally reasonable - that's why I looked into the Nanking Massacre. Disturbance strengthens messages and emotions. Disturbance is an important emotion just as with all other emotions. Sharing the hurt and imagining what the son feels right now is empathy. There are connections that are made in times that are the most traumatizing, and claiming we cannot share the literal images is a denial of a medium so telling.
It is weird and gross and depressing and shocking and evil and traumatizing and unpleasant, but that's the point.

This is something I want to explore very passionately. I personally feel society is responsible for most "monsters", and I'll being doing a speech for my communications class exactly on this subject in a few hours.
acting like the /b/ board represents 4chan as a whole is like acting oify represents this website as a whole

Well tbh society and birth are responsible for 100% of monsters. You are as time and circumstance have made you.
Did I really get this desensitized by the internet that when I look at those images I just go "meh just some nude woman with strains around her neck" and was expecting way worse with the huge NSFL tags? I mean it's awful the woman was murdered but the pictures aren't even that bad

Okay, this is the guy I meant for my post on page 2 to apply to. Please consider it a reply to this dude from this point onward.
Holy fuck, I seen that last night but just thought it was clickbait or someshit.

I know, the same thing even happens sometimes when you do press /v/
