4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.
Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.
5. Only recent news is allowed.

The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.
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.
Video? Sure it's not just a picture?
because they were just standing there?
Yep
Was clicking on the article to check really too much of an effort to you?
No, but either my joke wasn't appreciated or people didn't realize it was one.
Probably wording could be better like “why would they make a whole video of a still image…”
Yea, that definitely works better.
It certainly went over my head
The joke was just slightly subtle I appreciated it.
Jimmy Kimmel was there?!
And he did nothing
I appreciate that they are made public for analysis, but there is no fucking way I'm watching those bastards stand outside, knowing they just stood there while children were being murdered.
Watch it. Be angry. Get your blood boiling. The parents and families deserve our anger at these fuck ups in uniform. Our anger will get things moving. These families need the outcry of every one of us to call these officers out and ask for their heads. Hold them accountable, and never let something like this happen again.
I think I made it quite clear that I am already angry at them and holding them accountable. All watching the video will do will make me feel awful. What does that accomplish?
Daniel Shaver's execution was nauseating to watch.
