Eh, I get where the admins are coming from, on the one hand I'm glad to have been told about this, on the other hand this seems more like Digg or Reddit content than HN content. If HN put outrageous things on the front page whenever they occur, we'd probably have nothing else left.
- mbillie1 13y agoIt's got 4744 upvotes and 7708 comments on Reddit atm. I agree with you entirely.
- unimpressive 13y agoAnd Reddit appears to have just removed it from /videos. With that in mind I am now more open to the idea of it being on HN.
- mbillie1 13y agoStill up on /r/Bad_Cop_No_Donut - http://www.reddit.com/r/Bad_Cop_No_Donut/comments/1hg9xa/hawthorne_ca_police_kill_dog_of_onlooker_xpost/ http://www.reddit.com/r/Bad_Cop_No_Donut/comments/1hg9xa/haw... - and probably loads of other places. Memes will surface about it, etc. I agree that it is bad; I just think that Reddit is the perfect forum for such expositions. HN will just turn into Reddit if it goes down the "high emotional content" route, imo.
