How is this oniony?

Why would this have been a possible onion article in the first place?

Wild. If only they had been warned.

It's not.

Some keyboard warriors think violence is funny.

I don’t understand how US is in the title. PR us part if the US.

Scratching that island right off my vacation wish list.

Clearly, the most heinous crime committed here was by these tourists who had the audacity to take videos in a public space. Who does that?

Any Puerto Rican stabbed in Puerto Rico is a US citizen stabbed in Puerto Rico.

Next you are going to tell us New Mexico is in the US

That’s the Reddit edit. The original APnews headline is “3 mainland US tourists stabbed in Puerto Rico neighborhood”

Does the AP not know that Puerto Rico is part of the US?

It’s a very specific part of the island that you have to very purposefully attempt to go to. You can’t accidentally end up in La Perla. And you’re told not to go there by pretty much everyone. So just don’t be an idiot tourist and you’d be fine.

I don't understand why this article is posted here either. People are stabbed in Puerto Rico doesn't seem like a headline the onion would use. Wtf has happened to this sub.

Next you’ll tell us Nebraska exists

Why haven’t you deleted this yet?

I think they're talking about people from the mainland. I'm also not surprised these tourists got stabbed. Rich people move here and jack prices up for the locals and then say the same time build these communities where they all live together. So the locals see people who remember l resemble the rich and attack because they really don't like them

My guess is because every Puerto Rico stabbing victim is an American stabbing victim, but people act like Puerto Rico citizens aren't American.

I'm not saying it's good satire, but my guess is this is what they meant
