New York (CNN)There's a growing debate among journalists over how to report on the victims of mass shootings. Some argue that if lawmakers and American citizens were able to see the graphic images of dead bodies in classrooms, there could be a shift in how some in the country approach gun rights.
Temple University's journalism school dean David Boardman tweeted on Tuesday that he couldn't have imagined advocating for this just a few years ago. "It's time, with the permission of a surviving parent, to show what a slaughtered 7-year-old looks like," Boardman tweeted.

Fair question: Would you give equal time to showing a raped and knife-mutilated woman who was unable to defend herself with a gun?
Show the hidden videos/pics of 9/11 victims, maybe that’ll help anti-islam sentiment?
Maybe we should show post abortion pictures too?
F**king ghouls.
The left has banned and tried to criminalize showing aborted fetuses. They try to vet cops to force people to remove them anytime they are displayed for all to see.
Gee I don’t know cnn..would pro baby murder people change their minds if they saw slaughtered aborted babies just asking
No.
Democrat cops let kids bleed out.
There was a time when the mutilated remains of an aborted human were being shown on the side of panel trucks. The full court press to enshrine abortion murder on demand didn’t slow a step. So emotional tools work against moral values where leftist scum are targeted, but work to shame moral people where liberal scum use the techniques. Personally, such images of the slaughtered children would push me in the emotional direction of demanding the arming of teachers and the presence of ballistic shields (2 or 3, atleast) in every school. There is no legislation which will get the weapons away from the criminals, so why not empower the victim class to fight these government shills?
Also if you go to theync.com you can see the live Buffalo shootings and endless violence. I’ve watched many of them.
Be warned, nsfw and rough. But it tends to show how bombs, planes, guns, and so on all mutilate and leave the same greasy/red/grey mess behind.
Does this mean we get to show them graphic images of aborted babies?
The Pro Life people have pictures of aborted babies. I think it is not a very effective protest weapon as much as it tends to turn people away. Having pictures of gunshot children will do the same.
Show more images of the Jews who were murdered by the psycho Nazis.
Jews who didn’t have guns.
Or equal time to a full-term abortion?
The proximate cause of these murders is negligence on the part of teachers who left an exterior and classroom doors open allowing the murderer access to the children
I hold them liable for the deaths of 21 people.
It must be frustrating to spend decades on propaganda and make no headway in getting Americans to give up the only thing that will protect them from the evil Left.
Our Second Amendment insures the right of a citizen to ownership and possession of a firearm. This amendment was written after our revolutionary war against the tyrannical Crown of England. Oddly we just wanted the same rights as English Citizens and were denied such.
Post revolution our brilliant forefathers understood the necessity of the citizenry needs to defeat foreign tyranny or domestic tyranny of one’s government. Thus the second amendment.
The second amendment is not subject to debate. It means precisely what it says. It can only be changed by a new constitutional amendment, which will not happen.
The root of the Uvalde tragedy is that the background check system was not informed that the would-be gun purchaser was a nutcase.
Don’t let the leftists avoid dealing with the uninformed database problem.
In other countries they show graphic images on the TV news.
The only impact on gun ownership is that it increases the guns sold.
Therefore I encourage CNN to start showing graphic images of those killed by those using guns, particularly by those employed by the tyrannical government.
Showing pictures of ripped apart aborted babies sure as hell never phased the left!
No more than graphic images have changed the abortion debate.
