I don't know if it'll do any good, but I found it to be so fucking offensive that my stomach is clenched...like the inside of a baseball. I'm sickened not by the graphic nature. It's not that graphic really. I've seen worse. I just think of his family and all the others who are serving their country in a diplomatic fashion overseas.
I'm sick and angry.

(10,718 posts)He had died of smoke inhalation in the consulate, apparently, and after the Libyans had overcome the attackers they found him and carried him to a vehicle, then to the hospital.
There are two pictures of his body being carried through the crowd, which are just tragic and heartbreaking...though the RW was saying that he was being "dragged through the streets", to justify branding Libya as a terrorist state.

I wish more people would complain about that pic on FB. It'd be nice to see it taken off.
They'll remove breastfeeding pics, but not this.
