Wow, I wonder how they could be featuring stuff from the newtown shooting.
ReplyDeleteProbably more of a preemptive move, they only pulled the more "troubling" ones.
Ridiculous tbh
ReplyDeleteThey make the episodes ahead of time, there's no way that there is any thing directly relevant to the shootings
ReplyDeleteI am glad that they pulled them if there is ANY possibility it may bother any one at this time.
