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, blogs, 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.

Bark on about how your rights are being taken, maybe when you find your oppressor we can throw a gun in the mix and see who comes out victorious. Waah waah, the powers are holding me down. Let's go get the state to allow more unrestricted access to fire arms, as that's everyone's solution to everything.
Im not sure where your rant came from. I’m not trying to throw a revolution. Just trying to protect me and mine.
https://gunsafety.ny.gov/domestic-violence Go to another thread with this savior attitude.
Are opposing opinions scary to you? Do you need a safe space?
Buddy, you're the one all about the safe space in your domicile with your guns. TF i care about your trolling, you're in a thread about domestic abuse, and have no grasp on the statistics I presented to counter your high and mighty opinion.
Lol, dropping a link in a post does not constitute an argument or a counter to my “high and mighty opinion”. That is a citation.
If you can’t form a coherent argument on your own thats fine, but don’t delude yourself into thinking dropping a link is a substitute.
To be honest I'm truly bored with this discussion. The argument you've given boils down to meaningless pedantry that critiiques ones' presentation over facts, contained in the link I found quickly, with which to dispel the illiterate.
Are you still making a big deal of the link you posted?
Not one bit. This isn't rocket science, you wanna know something look it up son. Or else I'll school ya. Tootles
Before you go, I do want to apologize. I re-read your post and realized I did miss a good point you made. For that I am sorry.
“Buddy, you're the one all about the safe space in your domicile with your guns. “
I’m glad that you recognize on some level that firearms empower individuals to take agency for their own safety and protection. I realize this thought is but a small seed but hopefully it will grow in time.
But once again, you pour over my words with such vigor. Cry into your secure little end of the void.
No I’m just happy to see the seed is planted. I’ve done my part for 2A today.
