Not only there has been movies that showed actual maiming and animal and human torture, and there's that video that millions watched on YouTube that shows a Jordanian pilot being burnt alive, as this is not even close to the most shocking movie ever.
Besides, what makes me angry is the fact that during its 104 minutes run thousands of women, men and children have been raped, molested, had their limbs cut off, eyes gouged, have been decapitated, shot, blown up by ISIS's machine guns, blown to pieces by American drones, bombs and heroic U.S. soldiers, most of them ordinary citizens, but people spend their time commenting on the 'obscenity' of the scene where a 'baby' [actually, a doll, of course. The shooting of an innocent civilian by a U.S. soldier in Iraq is ten thousands more OBSCENE than a fake rape scene on any movie, including this one. Obscenity is not a concept restricted to sex, you conservative christian hypocrites] is raped. They're deeply disturbed by depiction of violence on a fictional medium but don'n show such sensitiveness about their surroundings, their neighborhood, what their government is doing with its own citizens, what their country is doing with innocent civilians from other countries in the name of Democracy, Allah, Islam, Zionism, Palestine, Socialism, 'a Christian society and a god-fearing nation', police brutality, blacks raping white women and children and looting stores in response to the legitimate shooting of a black guy who robbed a store and assaulted its owner, homophobia being preached on live tv by politicians and religious leaders, mysoginy being taught in rap and hip-hop 'songs', traffic violence, the destruction of Earth's natural resources and the extinction of species on a daily basis, 7 billion people going on 8, 9 10, 15, 20 billion...should I go on?
If you're really alarmed with violence and child abuse, don't look for them in films. But it takes a lot more guts to fight the Real violence around us than it takes to type a angry rant against a fictional play where actors pretended to be doing things that happen around us every thousandth of a second at an astronomical rate.
Good luck with you 'nice, good and concerned' people.
Now STFU and go p.huk your self-righteous selves.
