What is the charge? Throwing a succulent sandwich meal?

Sean Charles Dunn, 37, of Washington, D.C., approached a group of U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents late Sunday, pointed a finger in an agent’s face and swore at him, calling him a “fascist,” a police affidavit says.

Where's the lie

[-] OldSoulHippie@hexbear.net 38 points 4 months ago

Is fascist a swear word now?

[-] Rom@hexbear.net 17 points 4 months ago

Seems like he said other stuff too.

Not sure about the US, but here in Denmark you can absolutely get fined for calling the cops fascist. It falls under the same law that protects traindrivers and social workers from being assaulted, because everybody knows that a cop wearing a bulletproof vest and carrying a gun is exactly as deserving of protection as a traindriver being attacked by football fans after their team lost and they drank 20 beers to cope.

[-] Cysioland@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 4 months ago

Yeah, in Poland there's a minor violation charge of "insulting an officer" too

[-] T34_69@hexbear.net 3 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

That's wild, words are assault???

Three question marks to emphasize how wild it is

[-] ProfessorOwl_PhD@hexbear.net 4 points 4 months ago

Depending on the jurisdiction assault can be split into assault and battery, where assault is making someone fear immediate violence and battery is the actual violence.

[-] T34_69@hexbear.net 3 points 4 months ago

I'm aware of that, the distinction applies where I live too, it's just that it's absurd to treat something that amounts to harsh language / name-calling the same as a direct threat of physical violence. Though actually there are analogous rules prohibiting verbal abuse of airline employees, but actual fines for calling a cop a fascist strikes me as exceptionally fragile.

shit man even $19.11 for two footlongs would be a decent deal now

[-] Des@hexbear.net 36 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

they're going to eventually make even looking at them too intently a felony.

shits going to clog up the courts (but i guess they can just recruit national guard as judges or whatever)

becomes a pathway to disarm and render any resistance into a state-sanctioned underclass (unless you have wealth + connections obviously).

everything is already a felony anyway maybe it will be rendered meaningless. average reddit libs still think felons are only violentremoveds (papists) and murderers, maybe it will be a wake up call

[-] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 25 points 4 months ago

No prob. Trump can say it's an "emergency" and GOP SCOTUS will soon say Trump can use a brand new special court they designed just for him where anybody Trump wants can be a judge. Judge Kid Rock. Judge Ted Nugent. Etc.

[-] Des@hexbear.net 16 points 4 months ago

ooo let's take it further and he just declares all democrats/non-whites/other marginalized group felons in a press conference! the Honorable Kid Rock can slam a gavel down, instantly sentencing millions, i mean fuck it why not

seriously though i think they are foaming at the mouth to find some pathway to this. within the next year they will find a reason to disarm only those that aren't supporters.

they'll need a trigger and it can't be a lone shooter, even if a leftist. it's going to be when a John Brown Gun Club militia or community defense actually outguns ICE and drives them off

[-] Le_Wokisme@hexbear.net 11 points 4 months ago

apparently it was from a subway so it was barely edible and not legally bread in some places.

[-] InevitableSwing@hexbear.net 4 points 4 months ago

not legally bread in some places.

~7% actual bread?

[-] Spongebobsquarejuche@hexbear.net 9 points 4 months ago

I believe the sugar content classifies the bread as a pastry in some places.

i remember it being in the news in the before times because ireland said something like that

What's the charge? Throwing a meal?

Edit: fr tho, if throwing a sandwich gets you felony assault, might as well make it a brick.

[-] Bane_Killgrind@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 4 months ago

Get your hand off my hoagie!

[-] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 29 points 4 months ago

Yeah that sandwich might have had a knife or acid in it!

So it's a crime to get hit by a sandwich? If that the case, might as well [transcript omitted]

[-] darkcalling@hexbear.net 18 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

If you told a chud this story but instead the person the sandwich was thrown against was a "woke activist college student" and the thrower was some middling reactionary like Bill Maher they'd be aghast at the abuse of law and make fun of them for being so thin-skinned as to feel feloniously assaulted by a sandwich. They'd go on a long rant about how back in their day fighting, punches, people were tougher, yada, yada.

[-] i_drink_bleach@hexbear.net 8 points 4 months ago

Best part about that story is it's made up. I can, with probably 99% certainty guarantee that the person telling that story has never even been in a fight, never had a bloody nose, never been knocked out, never had a knife pulled on them, never been almost stabbed, never had to pull a gun on somebody, etc.

If fed-boi wanted to show legitimacy, show they weren't just a fascist oppression force, he should have taken that sammy to the vest without even flinching. He didn't though. That says everything I needed to hear. "Felony 'assault' with a sandwich." Cool. Biggest bunch of weaklings I've ever even imagined.
