there is a certain allure to being first AND right. people who do that are congratulated and respected for their work.

Does anyone, outside of media people and journalists, remember or even care who breaks the news first?

I don't pick my news source on who breaks the news first. I base it on a higher standard... who has the hotter babes.

I like this one because it's like they uncovered a new homegrown terrorist group... The Khaki Brigade

The great thing is the top photo has been cropped because it was actually taken afterwards. Oh, look, they had.... extra backpacks!

Clearly a false flag to start a war with Mississippi

I really hate when people turn tragedies like this into some kind of patriotic nonsense. Are we that insecure as a nation that every time someone wounds us we need to remind ourselves how awesome we are? I think it's normal to feel good about the way people react to tragedies, but the flagwaving crap is just horrible, imho.

I'm on board.

With any luck, Alabama, Tennessee, Louisiana, and Georgia will ally themselves with Mississippi.

That wouldn't surprise me. They seem to be basically throwing darts at this point.

Ed Bott ‏@edbott 46m So maybe Reddit should leave the detective work to actual police? http://goo.gl/C8owk

This is what you call a witch hunt media, for god sake.

The two males we're talking about are the one in a black jumper/hoody with a white hat, and his friend in a blue track jacket. There are multiple news sites releasing their information and/or Facebook pages, this is disgusting and will not be tolerated here, no links to these stories are allowed.

Please report any posts regarding personal information on these two, they will be removed and the user will be permanently banned. All previous links to these two are being removed.

We are not waiting for them to be officially cleared, one of the men has contacted the police to try and clear his name. Please understand that the FBI now knows who they are, so our posts now have no purpose. If the situation changes then people can make new posts. It's not our job to keep their information out there, people are innocent until proven guilty - not the other way around.


thanks reddit!

But the guy in blue is looking at the race, he must be innocent.
