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!

And pointedly, the police only respond for criminal issues. They are not going to assist you in a civil dispute like this. Unless you're the fucking sheriff. The best that could happen is the police come to trespass the caller.

They might arrest you to teach you a lesson in not wasting their time, though.

Obviously not if you're the sheriff.
