I was ambivalent on the issue until this barbaric "protest" forced my hand. Now Gaza will never have my vote.

80% of Americans are only 1 stolen parking space away from committing a mass shooting spree, so it’s not too far off

How much money were the cops asking for?

disburse

dis·burse /disˈbərs/ verb

verb: disburse; 3rd person present: disburses; past tense: disbursed; past participle: disbursed; gerund or present participle: disbursing

pay out (money from a fund).
"$67 million of the pledged aid had already been disbursed"

Well yeah, the protestors aren't the ones paying the cops, that's for damn sure.

[–] sloth@hexbear.net 17 points 2 years ago

That's why they were arrested, 'failure to disburse'.

Have they thought about the inconvenience this will cause? What if there's an Ambulance? etc. etc. etc...
