The only time I really cringed was when I saw the woman getting shot while pleading for help. By the time I found the video and watched it, much of the shock value was gone for me. I also found a article that featured screenshots of the video, which gave me an idea of what to expect if I ever decided to watch it. When news of the shooting broke, I read as much news articles as I could, and I followed the timeline of events and all the eyewitness accounts.

Therefore, I avoided any unexpected surprises when it came to encountering the video.

I didn't have social media back then, and I got my news straight from the sources rather than from there. When I first heard about the shooting, I was absolutely shocked to learn it had been livestreamed, since that obviously had never happened before with a mass shooting. I am quite fortunate to have been well-prepared by the time I decided to check out the video for myself. Violations of these rules will result in a permanent ban.
