OK so like I was shopping, and I went to the grim baby place, cause they say the have clothes n stuff, and there was like all these babies that were grose. Now like sometimes I like blood fountains n stuff, and like vampires are kool, but these babies I saw will grose me out forever. One even had no head. I'm just in tears about this, anyone that shops in there, and buys this babies has problems. How come they let people make stuff like this!?!?!

If you think that's gross, you should really spend an evening with Taco, Stroker and me! Creative freedom doesn't mean you can cut out the parts that offend you: some art is intended to offend. Freedom should only end when it infringes directly upon another's freedom... and you clearly were the one going to the store and seeking these out. Perhaps that's a commentary on some hidden fetish in your closet? :)

Regards,

Each to their own. I don't particularly care either way about grim babies, but I find blood fountains highly distasteful and turn my stomach.

There is a lot more offensive stuff out there - especially in the sexual side of things - but we just have to get on with life.

Who would you like to police our content?

If you do not like it, do not buy it. I see no reason to limit our creativity because an object does not agree with your taste.

Where do you think that the vampires *get* the blood to make those blood fountains? Are they just supposed to let those exanguinated babies go to waste?!?!

d00d. You really should have been there. Stroker literally was wearing devil horns. Until one fell off due to the theater glue not working well enough!

I like the whole Grim Baby thing! That, and I have a twisted/sick sense of humor at times :D

If you find the Grim Babies offensive remind me to IM you some Dead Baby Jokes. I have TONS. Maybe some perverted sex jokes for Lewis too!! :D

So you were shocked appalled and disgusted..well then the grim babies perfromed thier fucntion as art and produced the desired reaction. They have successfully challenged the sterotypes and paradignms we create around the artful representation of babies.

The have poked at the shrine which we put babies in as sacred objects.

In short the purpose was to shock and apall and disgust. Its fine if you do not like it, but its not particularly harmful to anyones morality. I am sure you and lewis can create, on your own island, a disney panacea, and can log in to SL without ever having to see anything you don't want to.

Headless babies are a fact of second life, whether prim or grim. If you want a baby with a head, you're betting on the wrong pony.
