Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
Sister Communities:
-
/c/TenForward@lemmy.world - Star Trek chat, memes and shitposts

Not even just that, in the situation above the cops seem to have had multiple chances to show some compassion and empathy. I highly doubt it's actually against the law for you to buy someone else a ticket. Do your kids have to work to earn the money to buy their own ticket to ride with you?
What if you just slipped them some dollars. Or just - say "hey you, here's that 20 I owe you from last week".
