By now you may have seen the video of the police officer holding his gun while people throw snowballs at him. If not here it is (language warning):
Questions:
Why are these einsteins having a snowball fight at a busy intersection?
Are there no parks in DC?
Why are they pegging cars as they pass by?
Do they know that it is illegal to damage other people’s property?
Who is the idiot that hit the officer in the face?
Does he know what assaulting an officer is?
When did it become a crime for this officer to hold a gun?
Can I still hold a gun?
[relax style=”joking”]
Where is the officer’s medal for not blasting half the crowd’s heads off as I would have been tempted to do with so many idiots in one place?
[/relax]
Seriously, who doesn’t know that police officers carry guns and is shocked, like the brainiacs in this video, to find out that they do?
Why is the issue not the fact that there are so many geniuses out there with complete disrespect for laws? That is the more frightening thing than a cop with a gun.
Yep. Some people have no perception for authority or how to respect it. When it comes to the law, I would say disrespecting them is a BAD idea (even as part of an organized “peaceful” protest–which this most definitely was not). I’m on the officer’s side because those hooligans are lame.
