Reddit Bans Subreddit Dedicated To Finding Navy Yard Shooters
Hugh Pickens DOT Com writes "Reddit became a gathering place for amateur sleuthing in the aftermath of the Boston Marathon bombing earlier this year, fueling what some reports called 'online witch hunts' that resulted in some people being falsely identified as the bomber. Now Andrea Peterson reports at the Washington Post that a section on the popular online community for finding the Navy Yard shooters has been banned. 'We banned it because it violated site rules by encouraging the posting of personal information,' says Erik Martin from reddit. The shooting at the Washington Navy Yard on Monday morning left at least 12, including a gunman dead. But police say there may be another suspect at large, and they 'have reason to believe' this individual was involved in shootings."

as long as it's the speech we allow you to say.
AHAHAHAHAHA and you think a gun will do that. Funny too how those safe countries have much harsher controls also are MORE free in actual important ways than your shithole.
Hey guess what - the fact the crime rates and murder rates AND massacres are MORE prevalent in the USA completely debunks your theory about self defence. And did you ever think that in an armed populance, the criminals just simply shoot first? How you gonna defend yourself if you are fucking dead?
Frankly I'll take being in a country where you are actually safe and have no fear of being assaulted - maybe instead of fellatio over the imagined protection of a gun you get your fuckign society in order and create an enviroment where poeple dont feel the need to shoot or be criminals int he first place? Oh wait you mean the real solution is too hard so you have to have to run and hide under so called gun rights?
Fuck you and your guns and your short sighted bullshit.
