I feel that death is a private matter for the families of these people. I feel that when these images were posted it exploited and contaminated my brain and left this person with no dignity in death. There was no choice about whether to view them or not given to anyone, despite the disclaimer.

I have no problem viewing a person that is dead. I have seen dead people before. I have had friends die and their relatives asked me to fix their hair and make-up before the viewing at the funeral home. The one girl had been so sick and she always had sunshiny hi lighted hair and her family felt that she should look how she would have wanted to look. I cannot imagine the pain that this person's family must feel if they know her image is being paraded around the internet. She was a person now she is dead.

She was put on as a grotesque display for a reaction. I don't think this is about censorship as much as it is about human dignity in death.
