I suppose my/our games involve a lot of aspects that can be unsettling and troubling, but it's all part of the game. People don't take them personally, and I don't think any of my group want our games to shy away from things.
The feel of realism, even the ugly side of things, is a large part of the fun for us, I'd say.

It's not a pleasant subject, but I suspect it will bump up again our games.
Each to his/her own.
