re: Has anyone actually watched the ISID beheadings?

No. But I watched a Mexican woman carve a man's face of while he was alive. And countless other cartel videos. That was a dark day. Never again.

I've seen one cartel beheading video. We were drunk and got started talking about the deep web. Buddy comes across one of many available videos and we watch. Its something that I wish I had never seen. Incredibly sobering moment.

They watched another one with a woman getting her leg sawed off by the cartel with what appeared to be a rusty kitchen knife. Just the noise made my stomach turn. I don't see how people can be that sick.

History shows that the Catholic Church has a pretty solid history of brutal torturing too.

but if you find death fascinating and have curiosity to see these things, there are some issues.

Everyone finds death fascinating to some degree. If you think that you don't then you are lying to yourself.

Regardless seeing these videos is neither pleasurable or fun for me, and I'm not going to be seeking out and promoting any of these new videos.

I did 4 autopsies when I was 16 because I was interested in getting into forensic pathology. It didn't bother me a bit. I got to assist, cut, sew, etc. But the "3 guys, 1 hammer" video seriously was the most gruesome thing I have watched. It surpassed the Berg video for me, probably because the men were laughing while they videoed themselves stabbing a man and smashing his face in with a hammer. And the fact that the man was breathing long after he had no face...
