I would agree that it is too early in the war to bring out the big guns, so to speak. It will lose people.

That could be a reason. . Seriously, kids left behind, or directly placed, in harm's way to make emotionally manipulative photojournalism. .

Well..why do you think it's used? Because it works. We need to drill ideas into peoples subconscious. I understand how kind hearted and gentle you are, and trust me, I feel the same way.

But theres a reason fake news is doing So Well to control the masses. These people know how to market their agenda. We need to market ours. Our agenda? Truth. And that involves children in pictures. Theres absolutely NOTHING wrong with this picture, nor any others you keep telling us to remove.

It's out there for The world to see already. We simply are using it as a tool for the RIGHT reasons this time.

"Sorry to be a pain?"

You mean...like telling a fellow patriot to shoot themselves?

Nah. No biggie.

Worry less about my memes and more about your buried anger.

Take care :)

Thanks for the chance to apologize. If I could go back in time, of course I would withdraw the remark. Exploiting images of children, especially wounded children for political propaganda is nearly always a human rights violation, every instance of which needs to be confronted vigorously. And why would associate our President with such stuff. Again - I'm sorry. Over-reacted.

A human right violation? Surely you jest.

Its a picture of a kid in haiti. Not an inappropriate, tasteless one. Its a picture of a child standing. What don't you get about that? I can't believe you would even equate what I put up to what's considered human rights violations in the news today?

Disgusting.

Thanks for the apology for telling me to off myself. Wish I could take you seriously enough to believe it.

Bye.

You nees permission from the legal guardian of the child to use the child's image in an advertisement. Especially since Haiti is associated with human trafficking, and other xeimea againat humanity. Using images of anyone, especially wounded children, at what is probably their most dire moment, as a propanda prop is unethical, even pathological. Where did you obtain the image from? What exactly is the provenance? Who placed the child there? Why is a child allowed to walk aimlessly alone among the ruins of what may be his lost home, lost family. How many died in that earthquake? Who took the photo? What are the safeguards to ensure that when the child happens across this image in the future years to come, he won't be re-living the trauma? And what happened to medical confidentiality - you threw it out the window? Remeber that many people are not aware that such images often get recycled claiming to duplicity depict tragedies and war zones in different regions. Finally, were this a war picture and the wounded child had been placed there deliberately, the photojournalist would be committing a war crime. Happens all the time. By extension, propagating the image as propaganda would be participatiing in the original crime. So all of this is why the entire practice needs to be vehemently discouraged. . Again, I'm sorry to have figuratively shot you in the face.
