Naturalistic fallacy.

I have no hard statistics to back up either side, though.



Pointing out that something occurs in nature does not mean that a naturalistic fallacy has taken place.


No - but pointing out that something happens in nature, and _for_that_reason_ shouldn't be bothering people. Nature being full of violent deaths does not have anything to do with whether fictional deaths on TV are good or bad, yet this was (IMHO) implied.
