I cannot believe we're wasting taxpayer dollars on a ballistic hoagie attack.

I hope the people around him never let him live a minute without being reminded about what a weak little boy he is for whining about taking a soft, succulent sub to the shoulder.
Navy should give him a medal for surviving the first sub attack on US soil.
The Cunt for Red October.
There were 3 submarine attacks on the US in 1942.
Damned historical accuracy getting in the way of a decent joke
The injury was to the ego and authority - of the entire apparatus, not one man. They're all anxious to bring retribution and remind everyone that the enforcer class is above them and demands your cowering deference.
That's a really good point. I hope he gets a medal for injury in the line of duty with a big, televised ceremony and lots of sandwich puns.
Succulent...
Let go of my eggplant!
I hope the jury are all served sub sandwiches for lunch each day of this trail.
As neither party disputes the basic facts of the case, jurors will need to determine whether the sandwich-throwing is enough to convict Dunn on the misdemeanor assault charge.
Even if it is, this is a job for jury nullification.
A DC jury recently acquitted a different resident who was also charged with assault for allegedly moving her knee up toward an officer while being restrained after filming officers as they made immigration-related arrests.
I see that sense is, ever so slowly, being restored.
That sandwich did not explode. It flopped limply against his chest just as you would expect a sub from Subway to do.
New ICE patches: "Don't bread on me"
Video clearly shows that the sandwich was fully wrapped. Why do they need to lie?
Because conservatives are fucking snowflakes.
US catches up - abot 10 years ago, a riot cop in Russia became a victim of an empty paper cup throwing. It was qualified as assault, btw.

Or at least AN onion
"The bun was a bit dry and that was more than I could take!", said the frightened man in army gear.
GET OUT OF MY SWAMP, ICE
Poor little pissy pants, must be so hard to be a traitor when you smell like onions and mustard.
No. Remember that they could not get this through a grand jury. The Grand Juries are practicing Nullification for these incidents because the public is sick of Trump and ICE. They had to go with a lesser charge for it ... and this one stupid case will likely end this prosecutors career.
~~~~The fact they got a case at all says that people were still willing to allow a case.~~~~
Edit: I was wrong, apparently they dropped it down to a misdemeanor so they didn't need to get it past a grand jury.
Yes, a "no true bill" is where a grand jury does not have the 12 votes needed and is rare. It is said a grand jury could indict a ham sandwich. I do not know if this was a ham sandwich thrown, but there have been 8 "no true bill" votes in DC during Trumps shenanigans.
That is saying something.
A lot of us dream of using a submarine to attack our enemies. This isn't exactly what I meant.
It was a run-by sandwiching by a fleet-footed foot-long fling-er.
To be fair, the sandwich was loaded.
Lettuce, tomato, pickle, cheese, cucumber, onion, spinach, mushrooms, olives, bell peppers…
Obviously the border patrol bootlicker isn't accounting for his own scent which smells like pigshit.
There was a similar case in Russia in 2019 when a guy threw an empty paper cup in a direction of a police line at a protest, and got arrested and was tried for it. Ultimately he was set free, 2019 was very nice time for Russia, comparatively. Will see how American justice system compares.
meanwhile, there's another, actually important trial happening that is describing horrific conditions of ice detention.
I'd argue 1st Amendment rights and the weaponization of the legal system are also important.
Are you talking about this trial right?
Judge calls alleged conditions at Chicago-area immigration site ‘disgusting’
We need to stay aware of how this and similar trials unfold around the country.
This failed as an assault at the grand jury level, so they had to bring out a weak ass lesser charge.
Well, it was assault. Hilarious assault is still assault. As the victim, I'd be too humiliated to press charges.
If there's no harm there's no assault.
We're both wrong. "Battery" is the what the charge should be. Any unwanted and "violent" touching is battery (jurisdictions vary wildly of course). "Assault" is me telling you I'm going to beat your ass. Can't believe I mixed those up. 🙄
In any case, the notion of harm is a factor, but no harm has to occur to be charged. SOURCE: Spent the weekend in jail for admitting to pushing my wife. Battery. Got off, but still, had to spend 2-days with a bunch of animals.
Never speak to the cops!
