the 2nd pic has more text than sth. else. the text is: "censor, shows-violence, says the WDR". if you don't understand me: it means it shows violence, so the can't show this in the tv, cause it would be possible small children see this and want do this too!
so, i hope it was good for you !

I have seen the video and i don't see how it glorifies violence, it just promotes the use of alcohol and drugs. Pretty stupid, but hey, just my 2 cents.
