Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

So if they HAD been Palestinians, did the Miami attempted murderer think he’d be let off the hook? Someone help me understand!

I mean, wouldn't surprise me if that was the expectation and if that would actually be the result. Just claim you thought they were Hamas and you feared for your life, and the Florida stand your ground law would apply.

Honestly it is crazy to me that some people are ok with a hate crime. Don't go around killing people regardless of who they are.
