News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.
You're being too kind to these murderous fucks. Have you heard the tale of Chris dorner?? Dude gets fired for reporting excessive force. Dorner starts killing police. In their manhunt, they shot an elderly woman and her daughter for "matching the description".
A white male, also "matching the description".
When they corner him in a cabin, they burn the whole cabin down with him in it.
You mistake my facetiousness for kindness.
Sure, maybe I could see a good ol boy forgetting the difference between Japanese pickups such as a Titan and Tacoma (assuming they had the same cab/bed size configuration), but it's fucking embarrassing to confuse a proper pickup with a crossover-missing-some-roof such as a Honda Ridgeline. The original Ridgeline did NOT have a normal bed shape.
Yeah Dorner got screwed, but let's not pretend that he only targeted cops.
If I recall, he murdered several family members of cops (adult children, etc.). Maybe I'm forgetting part of the story but I don't think they deserved it.
Yeah, in his writings he specifically wrote he was going after the cops and their families that wronged him, but i just used him as an example of cops can't identify shit and will attack anybody "fitting the description". Like Dave chapelle once said, "calling all cars, be on the lookout for a black male between 4'7" and 6'8".
Though, as we see here, it would be more accurate to say "be on the lookout for a black or brown or slightly tanned male or female or person of ambiguous sex, between the heights of 3 and 7 feet, between the ages of 5 and 105. Suspect should be considered armed and dangerous, and may be hiding in any home. You should consider yourself to have a-priori probable cause to enter any residence, or discharge your firearm in any direction you feel appropriate at any time."
He killed 4 cops and the adult daughter of the police captain, which I read but did not confirm was training to be a cop herself. He specifically avoided killing non cops, and that's what got him caught because he didn't kill the couple that reported him, instead temporarily tying them up.
Didn't he also kill the daughter's husband/fiance who wasn't involved with the police? Also thought there were more non-cops, but I haven't really read about the incident since it happened
Nope. It's all linked in the Wikipedia article that was posted here.
