    It's a dishonest attempt to make the forcible taking of another life clean, neat and non-violent.

Similar to how the Bush administration forbid the photographing of caskets of dead US soldiers. Anything that makes the horrors of state sponsored death more visceral and real is on the table for censorship. When the truth works against your desires, hide it from view.
