> Families have become victims of harassment when weirdos have sent images to them of their dead family member.

.. and people have been shot dead by guns.

Many people feel that these are arguments for 'banning' (making illegel) harrassment and murder rather than videos and guns.




Videos of violent crimes that were filmed by the perpetrator of that crime should be illegal to distribute. Perjury is illegal. Judges limit what people can say about ongoing trials. There are all kinds of restrictions on speech. It's ok if this is one of them.
