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.

Interesting.

Is Trump going to invade Utah now?

The shooting occurred on the day before 9-11. I wonder if the timing had any significance in the shooter's mind.

From: https://sofrep.com/news/conservative-commentator-charlie-kirk-shot-at-utah-valley-university-event/

From the audio, I would speculate that a suppressed weapon was used to shoot Kirk from his left at a fairly low trajectory. It does not appear that a hollow-point round was used, as this would have likely caused more damage at the entrance site, which was the left side of Kirk’s neck.

SOF personnel I have spoken with regarding the shooting estimate the shot may have been taken from roughly 200 meters away.

Charlie Kirk fatally shot at campus event; 'person of interest' released: Live updates

Patel said the FBI has released a person of interest in the shooting death of Kirk, less than two hours after he announced publicly that the bureau had that person in custody.

"The subject in custody has been released after an interrogation by law enforcement," Patel said in a post on X at 7:59 p.m. ET. "Our investigation continues and we will continue to release information in interest of transparency."

So where did that 200 yards estimate come from?

This stands as a very good chance of not ending well for all of us. There will be more deaths now I fear.

Wouldn't surprise me if this gives trump the martial law excuse he has been gunning for.. Wonder if he was an unknowing participant / sacrificial lamb for a false flag to get this done and had no idea that they would throw him under the bus

I'm getting Reichtag Fire vibes
