Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

“Unfortunately a 5-year-old kid was hit and is in critical condition at our local hospital,” he added. The incident unfolded just before 2 p.m., the chief said. It was unclear who fired the shot that struck the child, the chief said, or what the child’s relationship to the shooter was.

The cops definitely shot the kid.

A core discipline in Proletarian Forensics is drawing outlines around the thumb-shaped passive voice voids in official accounts of events

Waiting for the "child found with a gunshot wound after officer-involved firearm discharge" update later this week.

Edit: holy fuck look at this weaselly fucking passive voice

The child is critically injured after being shot in the head and has not been identified. An off-duty Houston police officer and Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission officer were at the church and confronted Moreno. It is unclear if the child was shot in the process or by the suspect.

"shot in the process or by the suspect" fucking christ.

So yeah cops shot the kid too

[–] Rom@hexbear.net 5 points 7 months ago

Yeah they're still saying "it is unknown who shot the child." If it was the shooter they would have figured it out by now and would be blasting it in every single article. 1000% it was the cops.

Agreed. If it were anything less than 100% certain the cops shot the kid it would not be "unclear".
