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 right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.
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.
Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.
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 or celebrity gossip is allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis.
7. No duplicate posts.
If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. 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.
The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.
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.
He's getting exactly what he wanted by having an article written about it and having it shared across social media. But wow, it feels so good that he got mocked in the process...
Right? Instead of publicizing his bullshit, we should be ignoring him whilst simultaneously hoping he runs into the wrong end of a lawnmower.
his haircut looks like he got in a fight with a lawnmower.
Looks like he and Kim Jong Un share a hairstylist.
Dude killed people and hes not in jail, and instead getting attention.
In no way do I condone his actions, so let's start with that. Coulda, shoulda, whatever, is not what his trial was about.
Given the video evidence presented, he shot in self-defense. Given Washington state's law regarding self-defense, he shot in self-defense. Not going to replay it all, you can see for yourself.
All in all, it was a clusterfuck of biblical proportions. "Should have never happened.", isn't a legal doctrine. "He went looking for trouble and found it.", isn't a thing.
As to why we're still talking about this little maggot? Fuck if I know. I'd be the first to punch him in his fat face. I would happily spend the weekend in jail and lose on a battery charge.
Better amplify him by writing and article about him and linking to his Twitter.
Wouldn't want to just ignore him and let him fade into obscurity.
He won’t though. I guarantee he’ll be in federal office within 15 years
Goose stepping into the ~~White~~ Reich House to lick the Trump family boots
He wasn’t even fit for KP duty in the marines, so yeah, he’ll be the guy who replaces Ted Cruz
Because supporting him pisses of leftists. If everyone just ignored this dweeb instead of engaging with every stupid thing he does they'd stop giving him attention.
Following the same path/trajectory as the shitstain who murdered Trayvon Martin.
Good, he should be mocked
I’m of the opinion that this community is being ruined by you posting too many things that aren’t news.
Just filter the unwanted user out of the posts you see. The app I use for Lemmy includes this feature. I use it to clean up my feed from gallowboob-type ubiquitous posters, as well as any headline that includes the words "slam," "slams," or "slammed." I can also eliminate any headline ending in a question mark, as the answer is an automatic "no," so the question is not worthy of my attention.
