If you accept that non-citizens have no right to due process, you are accepting that citizens have no right to due process. All the government has to do is claim that you are not a citizen; without due process you have no chance to prove the contrary.

In the immediate aftermath, news outlets will get it wrong.
Don't trust anonymous sources.
Don't trust stories that cite another news outlet as the source of the information.
There's almost never a second shooter.
Pay attention to the language the media uses.
"We are getting reports"... could mean anything.
"We are seeking confirmation"... means they donβt have it.
"[News outlet] has learned"... means it has a scoop or is going out on limb.
Look for news outlets close to the incident.
Compare multiple sources.
Big news brings out the fakers. And photoshoppers.
Beware reflexive retweeting. Some of this is on you.
Remember: here's the breaking news handbook. All of these are good rules to stand by at the moment.
