Yeah I like the web-of-moderators, as I said.

>This doesn't solve the moral or legal issue, but it does solve the "i'm offended" issue. Which is more that what we could do up until here.

I entirely disagree. It does not solve that issue at all. The issue there is that people feel they have the right to filter out everything they disagree with or find uncomfortable. They don't.

The TV news doesn't avoid showing images that are graphic, they say 'graphic images upcoming, turn off if you can't handle it' then show them.

Yes but this is a way harder battle than creating a web-of-moderators :)
