News
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.
Can you post any example of a mob attacking someone for performing CPR on a woman?
Seems like a pretty wild assumtion that you will be attacked for helping someone in a life threathening state by some nebulous "them."
You’ve NEVER seen someone mis-perceive help as harm?
Not CPR, no.
Then you're either lying or not observant enough. Are you a man? Because if you aren't, it's likely you don't understand how it feels to get accused.

Stop trying to deny that it happens. It's risky af for men to help, why do you think they don't do it? Anyway why is it up to men to help? Why can't women help? Since they're obviously in a better position, and generally aren't considered perverts by default.
How am I supposed to know which country you live in? And who are you to dictate how many arbitrary articles I need to provide? You said any news outlet.
And just because you don't live there doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
Carry on with your denial tho. It happens, and just because you don't believe it doesn't make it false. Why do good samaritan laws exist? Why are men reluctant to help? Are all men mad?
My god. The mental gymnastics you'd go through just to pretend this doesn't happen. I'm out. Believe what you want, I'm not gonna try to educate the uneducateable.
Sure. Carry on then. Some people are extremely reluctant to change their view, even when they're obviously. That's what it means to be educateable. You can pretend it's a non-issue all you want, but why do these articles and study exist then? You make a lot of noise but you haven't been able to answer a single one of my questions.
You're one of those who just hope that by being the most outraged, you'll get your way. Sorta like Trump. No wonder. Nah, you bother replying. Just carry on living in your bubble.
Nope, not once.
No. every case I've heard of is after the emergency was over someone gets the law involved. Harassment, but never a mob involved.
Care to cite any examples in the US of prosecutions or civil cases that weren't immediately tossed within the last 30 years? This was once a problem. Good Samaritan Laws were passed to fix it, probably before you were even born. You're just making stuff up.
