Godspeed, you hero of gyros, you hoagie heroine, you rigoletto of Ruebens...
A grinder goodie.
The Po' Boy Protestor
An American Gyro
My goodness, so poetic - I love it! And I fully agree with you.
Not all heroes wear capes
But he does have a wrapsheet that's a foot long.
Some just have hero sandwiches?
Here's the director's cut. :)

this was beautiful thanks for sharing it
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.
That sub belongs in a museum
Are those the dangerous gangmembers Trump was talking about?
That slow run was like ballet.
a domestic terrorist using a sandwich of mass destruction. /s
The murder weapon was composed of ham and cheese
Never mess with the heavy eating his sandwich
So... I gotta know. Was it a hero's hero he launched?
What's the charge? Delivering a footlong meal? A succulent foot-long meal?
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.
I think it's just a play on succulent Chinese meal guy (he's dead now).
The hero we need.
The gyro we need.
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?
.......go google Greek Gyro, then go find your closest Greek restaurant and educate your taste buds. Tust. They will be happy.
Oh, don't get me wrong. I love eating them. But the guy threw a hero sandwich.
Ah my bad! I misunderstood your comment
adjust nerd glasses technically speaking...the greek word gyro is pronounced "eeer-o" so its not that far off from "here-o"
You should know, Cole, that everyone loves a pedant.
Plus gyro DOES rhyme with hero
Gyro does, but gyro doesn't.
Cops love sandwiches.
Nah he was a hero delivering justice
what a hero
handoff food delivery for those fine fucks, whoops folks, in the gestapo
Did he get away?
it's literally in the title. lol
I keep trying to formulate a plan in my head:
On one hand ACAB: They all promote the national security culture within the law enforcement sector that we civilians are the enemy. The departments are all corrupt through and through
On the other hand the non ICE officers hate being used as Sππβππβπππ‘π πππππ π‘ or Einsatzgruppen (German SD, or Death Squads, respectively) to pick on innocent civilians to be shuttled away to concentration camps. And I wonder if there was a way for the public to tell them we're sorry they are being abused by being repurposed as general goon squads, and if that might encourage them to resist more than they do.
Also, ICE agents, either pre-Trump used to sometimes engage in action that at least had the appearance of legitimacy, e.g. tracking people with violent records. New recruits (post OBBBA Budget) were told they'll be hunting the worst of the worst and then are picking up day laborers and ice-cream vendors, which is soul crushing for even MAGAs who wanted to be the hero.
We need to be able to take these sentiments and weaponize them against the system, and the policy-makers that are forcing them to be evil fucks for The Man.
I don't know the specifics, but there's a schematic in there somewhere.
Oh? They "hate" that, do they? Cite your references to that claim, please. Otherwise, your comment seems to stop at "ACAB" in its efficacy. π€πΌ
ACAB? American cops are bad?
