The Rules

Posts must be:

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...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!

At first glance, I thought that the guy in the white shirt was pointing an AR-15 or similar at a small kid just calmly washing his hands!

Then I looked again and realized that it's a camera 😆

I thought the same thing! Didn't realize it was a camera until I read your comment!

We're probably not the only ones, seeing as they seem to have done an emergency recrop on the article itself 😄

Haha! Yes they did.

I was expecting something more like R Mutt but this was also really informative. This is exactly the kind of red tape that looks bad and ends up being bad, and is then held up as an example for why we shouldn't have any red tape anywhere, ever.
