Looking for an image subreddit with minimal rules? Check out /r/images

A place to share interesting photographs and pictures. Feel free to post your own, but please read the rules first (see below), and note that we are not a catch-all for general images (of screenshots, comics, etc.)

Spoiler code

Please mark spoilers like this:
[text here](/spoiler)

Hover over to read.

Rules

  1. No screenshots, or pictures with added or superimposed text. This includes image macros, comics, info-graphics and most diagrams. Text (e.g. a URL) serving to credit the original author is exempt.

  2. No gore or porn. NSFW content must be tagged.

  3. No personal information. This includes anything hosted on Facebook's servers, as they can be traced to the original account holder. Stalking & harassment will not be tolerated.

  4. No solicitation of votes (including "cake day" posts), posts with their sole purpose being to communicate with another redditor, or [FIXED] posts. DAE posts go in /r/DoesAnybodyElse. "Fixed" posts should be added as a comment to the original image.

  5. Submissions must link directly to a specific image file or to an image hosting website with minimal ads. We do not allow blog hosting of images ("blogspam"), but links to albums on image hosting websites are okay. URL shorteners are prohibited.

  • If your submission appears to be filtered but definitely meets the above rules, please send us a message with a link to the comments section of your post (not a direct link to the image). Don't delete it as that just makes the filter hate you!

  • If you come across any rule violations, please report the submission or message the mods and one of us will remove it!

Please also try to come up with original post titles. Submissions that use certain clichés/memes will be automatically tagged with a warning.

Real of fake, it entertains the hell out of me!

I figured a Redditor could point to its source. I even looked on Snopes, but I hadn't guessed the right word-string. Up-voted for giving me the answer.

Before I read that it was a fake, I wondered which fate would be better - if the KlanMan had died, or if he had lived with the knowledge of how he was saved?

i think i was the only one to recognize Eriq Lasalle right from the start. i just googled er eriq lasalle klan (which is what i knew from the photo) and noticed snopes was 4th or 5th down...

I find the suggestion that any medical professionals would do less than their best really odd, and in this context offensive.

I can think of one situation where they may not do their best. I suspect that in some terminal cases, efforts that may prolong life (as opposed to providing comfort) may not be used for maximum effectiveness. Other than that, I agree.

If you are referring to the title of the post, I did not suggest that anyone wasn't doing their best to save the man's life.

Also, I don't know if you read it, but it turns out to be a fake. I didn't know.
