“The Killing of America” (1982) - In 1981 Japan, England and West Germany with a combined population equal to America there were 6000 murders; in America there was 27,000
For comparison: In 2018 there were 2548 murders in the UK, Japan, and (East, West) Germany (287M People) if we take a step farther and include France then we are at 3372 murders (and a total of...
For comparison:
In 2018 there were 2548 murders in the UK, Japan, and (East, West) Germany (287M People) if we take a step farther and include France then we are at 3372 murders (and a total of about 350M people)
In America there were 16,214 murders (328.2M People).
1981 - USA had a murder rate that was 4.5 times more than three countries combined.
2018 - USA had a murder rate that was 4.8 times more than four (technically five including both sides of Germany, six if we now include Scotland as part of the UK statistic and seven if we count Northern Ireland) countries combined.
You weren't kidding... there is some really graphic stuff in this. I have added a "nsfw.nsfl" tag to this post (since nsfw tags are custom styled but trigger tags aren't yet) just to warn those...
You weren't kidding... there is some really graphic stuff in this. I have added a "nsfw.nsfl" tag to this post (since nsfw tags are custom styled but trigger tags aren't yet) just to warn those who might not see your comment until it's too late. Is that okay with you? I can change it to something a different, e.g. nsfw.violence, if you think nsfl is too harsh.
I think nsfl is a bit much, but it may be the best thing at the moment. This is a great documentary, one of the best I've ever seen, but this is not for the faint of heart.

Yeah, it may be a tad harsh, but it's the only single term I could think of that covers gore, violence, death/murder, etc. And within the first 5 minutes there is a scene showing several human...
Yeah, it may be a tad harsh, but it's the only single term I could think of that covers gore, violence, death/murder, etc. And within the first 5 minutes there is a scene showing several human corpses in the process of being dissected at the morgue, one of which has the ribcage cracked wide open with a coroner in the process of removing all the organs... so I don't think it's too harsh to call that NSFL. :P
I don't like nsfl because it's imprecise and too subjective. I don't feel tagging must be about precisely covering the content but can also be used to give an idea of degree. There are different...

There are different levels of violence. If you can tag freely maybe nsfw.death would be more appropriate since it gives an idea of severity?

The video is down due to copyright.
I removed it, since I guess it was a pirated copy anyway.
Warning: This documentary shows death, gun violence, and various other related subjects.

Yeah, that works. Changed.
