Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

Reason.com is a libertarian propaganda mill. This story is meant to pit you against the state so you can swallow their other bullshit.

So you think this woman deserved to be arrested?

What I am wondering is what this publication is leaving out of the story in order to sell their perspective on everything. Maybe it's nothing and this really is just a DCFS gone mad (there are certainly cases in which this is true), or maybe there's more to the story and they are just glazing over it to make things sound better to their point of view.

Either way, this is a Republican run state which is the party that likes to court libertarians so I am pretty skeptical of everything regarding this.
