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 modsโ 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 donโt 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.

MODERATORS
OP, keep your editorializing out of it.
"how the children obtained guns"? The article gives no indication that there were multiple guns. Your editorializing makes it sound like they were playing with guns and shooting at each other.
The story is bad enough as it is without you lying about it.
It's literally the sub-title on the linked article.
Still wrong
Literally follows the rules of the community. It's as right as can be. point your complaints to npcnews.
Yeah, I know that's a typo, but now I want to know what NPC News is like. "Today, several PCs rampages through the streets and caused $10 million in property damage."

Can do.
You should probably at least click on the article before you start accusing OP of editorializing just because you don't like what it says.
I actually read the article.
If that's true and you expect us to believe that, then you don't know what "editorializing" means.
That's good. I stand corrected.
But if you read it in the article, why were you trying to tell OP off then? This isn't OC.
Edit @Drusas it's petty of you to downvote me when you can see I'm not downvoting you.
The line you quoted as "editorializing" ("how the children obtained guns") is literally a line pulled directly from the article subheader. In other words, there's no editorialization from OP. Like, you do realize that... right? By your replies, I can't tell if you're just trolling hard or that oblivious.

If you'd kept up with the thread, you would know you're like the third person to point that out. It is editorializing; I just didn't recognize the correct source.
Ok, bud. ๐
/Person acknowledges fault. Continue to act like a jerk to them.
Good job there, buddy.
You came out aggressively swinging from comment one, pal. Not sure what's got you at an 11, but I guess I could have been nicer. That's my bad.
You have misread. I was never at an 11 or even above like a three. Internet problems.
Fair enough. May your future internet interactions trend more positive. Have a good rest of your night, day, or whatever time it is where you're at.

Tell me you didn't read the article, without telling me you didn't read the article...
Is this an example of someone being confidently incorrect?
