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.

"Experts reject" carries no weight in today's landscape. It does not rule out the experts who could approve, of which there always are.
Classic cherrypicking to support an agenda. This case, it's because they don't like the death penalty.
Littleguy with little brain cherrypicking your own 'proof' because you love the death penalty.
Seems to be a troll account. I ran into him on another thread where he's arguing men have fewer rights than women because of Selective Service paperwork.
Probably wants a tradwife then.
Day old account with negative karma. Of course they're a troll. Ignore them, move on with your life.
Nah it's the experts with their radical "life continues after conviction" agenda. These pro life sickos just want adults to die of natural causes rather than how the government decides they should die. /s
Guess there's no way to know anything then, so we may as well have a blood sacrifice for the blood god!
Fuck it, let's bring back gibbets too; that way people will know what happens when they get caught by some pseudoscience quack with a chip on their shoulder and an army of meatheads who get violent when their authority is questioned.
Do you mean it carries no weight with yourself? It may not matter to the state or system if they are going to be authoritarians and reject evidence, but it SHOULD fucking matter to us, to the people who live here and vote and make laws that are supposed to be just and equitable.
Or is this emotion?
It's emotion isn't it. You are so angry at even the notion that someone harmed a baby that you are willing to abandon the standards on which our legal system has been built on? They did this also to justify killing thousands and thousands of civilians in Gaza, they knew how easily they could get people to abandon reason when they put the image of dead babies in their head.
Welcome to being a reactionary. Don't worry, you're not alone, the worst people in the world are down there too.
edit: just noticed you're a troll, don't bother replying. Go masturbate to your own dirty socks or whatever the fuck people like you do for fun.
