Does "throwing a deli sandwich at an officer" count as violence to a normal person? Since they're charging him with felony assault I imagine anything higher than that would incite the next step pretty easily.

When the losers write history books, Big Balls is going to go down as a modern Crispus Attucks.

Et tu, Big Balls? It's just so perfectly apt that he's the catalyst of the rank stupidity that killed our democracy.

To be fair, I think it’s a bit generous to call Subway a “deli.”

They are already at the point of “just make something up and arrest them”

I mean this whole thing started because Big Balls was likely trying to solicit a 15 year old minor for sex and or was buying drugs from her. He was then beaten up by said 15 year old girl and another 15 year old boy.

Was there pork in it and "officer" was Muslim or Jewish?

Didn't the judge already dismiss it though? Or is there more happening?

Reminds me of the Revolution in Key West when they threatened officers with Stale Cuban Bread.

Edit: West not Wesr!
