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, blogs, 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.

Fuck that, her mother deserved it and I'm glad that Gypsy will finally be free. What she did was self defense through and through. It's heart breaking that her (now ex) boyfriend is in jail for life because of this.
It's not heartbreaking...they had the option to go the police and instead chose murder. HE wasn't acting in self defense
You’ve never gone to the cops with a problem before, have you?
"Thanks. We'll send extra patrols. Sorry that happened. Have a good day!"
"Look, what do you expect us to do about it? We're really busy and your complaint isn't going to boost our revenue at all."
About12 hours ago as I'm posting this I was driving home from work with my parents a few minutes behind me, were gonna do Xmas this weekend. It's raining hard.
Someone with no lights on is barreling down my lane, I almost don't see him in time to swerve and honk. As I do so he very clearly swerves out and then back in (like he's trying to PIT me) and then returns to my lane once he misses me
I immediately dial 911 and after being on hold for 6 minutes all they said was "well get someone to that intersection"
Like, did you not fucking hear me? The guys doing 70, he's not at this intersection anymore!
"Well tell patrol, good night"
Parents confirmed he was still trying to kill people as he went down the road
If you’re lucky. If you’re not, you get Jeffery Dahmer’d.
