A lightweight news hub to help decentralize the fediverse load: mirror and discuss headlines here so the giant instance communities aren’t a single choke-point.

Rules:

  1. Recent news articles only (past 30 days)
  2. Title must match the headline or neutrally describe the content
  3. Avoid duplicates & spam (search before posting; batch minor updates).
  4. Be civil; no hate or personal attacks.
  5. No link shorteners
  6. No entire article in the post body

For those of us not from “LI”, I guess it stands for Long Island…

Yeah, took me a minute to catch that too.

From the article:

“Agents used [Caceras’] head as a battering ram into a brick wall,” the group [local progressive group Islip Forward] said. “This is not normal.”

If anything, we're finding out how "normal" these instances are. This seems to be the Democratic refrain but the perpetrators of these crimes against humanity don't care and likely revel in being "not normal." We're going to have to find language that more effectively conveys what we should be saying.

Also OP, the NY Post is a conservative rag. Please post from reliable sources of journalism in the future.

"ICE don't deserve to live and should all be executed for domestic terrorism, murder, and treason"

NY Post is such garbage its not even a trustworthy source of actual news. Not saying this didnt happen, just saying if I got my news from Facebook it wouldnt be any better.

So "don't use handcuffed people as battering rams" is a partisan issue, huh.

That comments section in NY Post is cancer. I have no idea how they're able to defend this and sleep at night.

Unless they're clankers.

I don't see any comments anymore. Maybe they got deleted?

Never trust the NY Post.

I wonder if this is a crime?
