Well I see all comments as a positive thing, any image that can evoke political/racial/religious comments must have been strong enough for the viewer to comment positive or negative, whatever, you have captured the attention of the audience.
I know this could be seen as a simplistic view and could also be taken to the extreme with offensive images used for comment but as photographers we want to stir emotion and have viewers think and comment about our images. |

So waht happened to all the negative comments? Did they get removed in the process of locking the image?
I think this whole episode is fabulously ridiculous, and a bit of growing up should be done.

| Yes a ridiculous incident - now rectified by a mature compromise, which weighs in on Setzler's concerns and site responsibility. |
