That's the take-away from that video. This is not community policing. This is authoritarianism.

the final answer to the "lawful order?" question may be "hold your fire" from a 20 year old sgt.

the young soldiers with this distasteful job are "us," lets make them feel at home. feed them.

Kindness to those people put into this probably illegal, definitely awkward position would be far more effective than throwing sandwiches at them. Imagine inviting them to join a block party. Remember they did not sign up to be Trump's thugs.

I think this video that glorifies this frustrated man throwing not just a sandwich but throwing his life as he knew it away is not good - and the number of clicks is not a measure of effectiveness.

I feel sorry for the guy, who was fired from a DOJ job and charged with a felony for this act. He obviously has been in a position where he has seen everything we always took as normal in our government wiped away before his eyes.

There are many better sub shops around DC if any DUers are hungry for something good to eat not use as a weapon. But if you want a breadly weapon, use hard roll not soft, like a stale baguette.

Dude was a Justice employee. Has been fired and charged with a felony. Jennine Pirro and Pam Bondi were gloating online about prosecuting him. They're going to throw the book at him for a stupid impulsive mistake.

Compare that to the bloody assaults and death on Jan 6. Those guys all got blanket pardons. Even people who have since committed other crimes upon their release from prison.

Either way, I recommend DUers steer clear of these douchebags and remain super calm and peaceful while protesting.

I imagine that many of these men sent in by this faciist regime government feel trapped and awkard, and yes... afraid.
