I know if I had been there I'd have yelled shit, fuck and a whole host of other slang oratory expressing my shock at the moment. What I don't get is how can hearing the word 'shit' be more traumatizing than seeing senselessly killed dead bodies? Everyone from the age of 10 and up uses or hears that word at least 5 times a day. If that's not trying to sanitize war I don't know what is. What, gotta clean up the language during family let's-watch-some-war time?
Sheesh!
