This video wasnīt "history" yet. The family is still in mourning. Eventually it will be ok to show it, but not just now. Itīs too fresh in peopleīs minds.
If the video was shown a year after the deed itself, i doubt it would have had this reaction.
The video was only shown in highschools or colleges, wich means the audience is mature enough to handle it. If they can handle Jerry Springer and South Park, they can handle this. Young children should only get to watch Sesame Street and Bugs Bunny cartoons, not real world violence.
It just happens that the teachers chose to show it too soon. They should have kept it on ice out of respect, at least untill the guy is buried, wich i donīt think he was yet.

"You bastards!"
