    Probably couldn’t find that many real unarmed Americans waiting properly for a real picture.

    And to preempt the comments: I’ve seen videos of people tearing down the doors for black friday. I’ve seen people going with open carry to buy TP during covid, openly stating “I’ll get my TP one way or another”. No way hungry armed people won’t escalate. Sure this is human nature, but Americans are the ones with more guns than eggs, and very divisive at this point in time

        I lived through a hurricane down in Texas years back, and the poverty “pick up basic supplied” lines were really dehumanizing.

        No shade, no real concern for humans, just passing out goods based on queue and hole with someone made it to the queue

        And of course performed by cops… you know, paragons of society………………………

      Also, who could afford that many eggs?
