    I have to respect them for fulfilling the delusional wishes of a tyrant? Cooooool. Maybe sit down, read some US military history that wasn’t published by a bootlicker and then circle back after you have a nice long think.

    You’ve said I have to respect a group that voluntarily (while acknowledging the power of propaganda and the existence of the poverty draft) commits war crimes regularly and generally leeches off the American system (military spending) because why again? Sorry, you lost me.

    Because the admin asks them to do “insane things” and they do it. Yeah. Jesus. Insane things like invading foreign countries for the betterment of business interests or toppling legally elected leaders that we happen to not like. Sure bud.

    Again. Read some more, have a loooong think and try again.

    Would you have the same opinion it if they didn’t include a seat either? Since there are two words at play here and we’re apparently making gross allowances for meaning in one could we do the other? Would it be acceptable if they placed you near the area with a seat?

    "Seat” refers only to the location allocated near to a row of seats, not a guarantee of actual place to sit.

    What kind of legal linguistic creep are we going to tolerate under this heading of “common fucking sense”?

    There isn’t a perfect solution, and that sort of thought terminating response is problematic to say the least.

    BUT here’s a little fun fact for you homie Riverside California has a mobile mental health crisis response team operated by the Riverside Univeristy system.

    Beyond that I’d at least go with 311. The non-emergency line that doesn’t automatically dump cops in your lap.

    So the manager had a literal professional mobile team he could have called instead OR at the very least called a number that is commonly known that doesn’t immediately dispatch professional murderers.

    So there’s two answers for you homie.

    It’s not really about if they had ill will. If you knowingly leave your baby in a hot car, you’re responsible.

    In our society, if you call the cops, you have to know what you’re doing. You’re calling an oppressive, occupying army whose sole job it is is to enact the state’s monopoly of violence upon its slaves/subjects.

    That’s the reality. You called a fucking team of violent psychopaths to resolve your issue. You bear responsibility in some shape for the results.

    It’s not someone’s fault that they’ve been propagandized and brainwashed by the system as a whole, being indoctrinated from birth in it BUT it is their responsibility to grow out of it.

    That manager, in a very real way, has the blood of that person on their hands and I’m with the other commenter. I hope it haunts them forever.

    Maybe then they’ll think twice before using a violent state authorized street gang to solve their problems.
