Christchurch shooting in New Zealand. It was stomach churning, don't watch it.

I won't. I'm just trying to determine what this has to do with showing the content. Authorities could have benefitted by seeing the stream, so this isn't a clearcut issue. Do you remember live 9/11 coverage? Were you telling people not to watch that?

It's the incitement that we should be concerned about, and balancing restrictions with peaceful freedom of expression.
