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, 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.

These cunts live every day without nearly enough fear of being tarred and feathered. That really ought to change.

[–] Tiral@lemmy.world 28 points 5 days ago (3 children)

Why would they have fear? How many people watched this happen in person and did nothing? If anyone there had any balls they'd stand up and not let it happen. I guarantee there were A LOT more citizens than security.

The US was founded on action, not petition signatures of how "upset" you are. Until people actually put their perverbial cock on the chopping block, things will only get worse.

I, too, have unfortunately watched "Antichrist"

The US was founded on action

Yes, the action of losing and running away, repeated until the enemy got tired of beating and chasing us.

I mean, the Declaration of Independence kinda was exactly that, but I know what you mean. :)

The only way these flock cameras are coming down legally is if people use the cameras against their local council.

Use the various means to get into the cameras or just set up shop outside their comes and note what time they go in and out of their home. Note their children's clothes, what school they go to and their car license plate numbers.

Provide print outs and distribute them at the meeting. Be sure to have them for the news people outside.

Council members think they are special and aren't going to be targeted by Flock. We need to show them that the laws that work for Flock work for us too.

[–] StabbingSky@lemmy.zip 23 points 5 days ago

Lol, they'll just arrest you for stalking.

The laws that work for Flock don't work for us too.

[–] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 5 points 5 days ago

Florida, of all places, just banned them. I think they see them as a future issue to beat MAGAs with in elections, and they already have Data Centers to protect. How many unsavory issues can they shove down voters' throats before they choke? Data Centers bribe bigger, so they get saved, while Flock cameras go. They're only being used by cops to stalk women anyway.

ya but if the poors do it its 'terrorism' and when the rich do it it's 'war'

or at least thats how it seems

[–] Bustedknuckles@lemmy.world 26 points 5 days ago

I think it's worse. When the rich do it, it's "Law and Order"

[–] anon_8675309@lemmy.world 8 points 5 days ago

Needs to be a day of reckoning.
