      The way they leapt at him the moment he threw it tells me that what he was saying and doing was actually getting to them.

      We need more of this.

      Also, I know I often laugh when I’m uncomfortable, so maybe that’s it, but the camera man is about to find out that maybe having the Gestapo take over your city isn’t actually funny.

        I mean, I highly doubt it. They were paying keen attention to the fellow screaming and yelling within a chucked sandwich distance, and he then threw a sandwich at them. They’d probably been considering what they could get him on (besides white or rye) for the entire time he was yelling at them because anyone close and loud is likely the biggest ‘threat’ much more so than any of them having a brain at the point of them going in with any seriousness after being ordered into a city with a lower per capita crime rate than the white house.

        Just like taco bell, you should probably get your colon’s health checked digitally if eating a random sandwich from a chain is giving you issues.

        A large sandwich\sub is literally known as a “hero” sandwich. Why would you try to take that perfection away to go for “gyro” , that is neither pronounced the same, or is a similar sandwich?

          adjust nerd glasses technically speaking…the greek word gyro is pronounced “eeer-o” so its not that far off from “here-o”

      It would be assault of a police officer and resisting arrest. Looks like that guy in pink was running in slow motion vs the special forces wanna be’s wearing 50 lbs of armor and equipment.

      Throwing sandwiches should become the new protest en masse.
