Rules:

  1. Try to keep the political or Trump-related content to a mild torrent.
  2. Reliable sources only.
  3. Articles are good. Self-posts or blog posts by professionals or journalists are fine. Memes or random blogs, no.
  4. Post title must match the headline. Edits for clarity are fine.
  5. Don't be a jerk.
  6. No racism, no bigotry, no spam.
  7. Be productive.

That's why I tend to argue about this on Lemmy.

Thank you for doing this! I saw this same story elsewhere and a lot of similar ACAB/good for the father comments elsewhere even though the article seems to hint the deputy killed was not involved in the shooting.

My first thought was the father was out driving, saw the deputy and was so overcome that he targeted the deputy in the spur of the moment, not that this was some planned retribution thing.

Just know I appreciate you.

Yeah. The Lemmy hivemind is a hell of a drug.
