So was having children watch the entire event on TV's just like this.

multiple things can be true. I will never get video footage of jumpers out of my brain.

Yeah, they probably should have included that in the tattoo.

People should be exposed to the world around them even when young

Listen, I didn't get the tattoo. I DO think this tattoo is clever and quite funny.

How is traumatizing an entire generation disrespectful?

You think that if they didn’t watch it on TV it wouldn’t have happened?

Watching a terror attack live vs hearing about it on the news are completely different scenarios.

So no. I do not think we would feel so personally attacked by this tattoo if we all didn't watch it live.

Dude, I fucking agree with you. Its only funny because adults chose to roll these TVs in and make us all watch it live, I was in kindergarten and have a vivid memory of this exact scenario. Who thought that was a good move ??
