    If enough people request it by the time we post the final time, we’re open to it.

    The reason we’re calling it a “guerilla snowball fight” is because it’s in the middle of the street.

    Screw that. Have it at 14th and U. It’s better in public in a shopping district. More mayhem = More fun!

    And post the time!

    Wow. This is ridiculous. Yes, snowball fights are very very fun. But are ya’ll so delusional to think this constitutes radical activity? What?

    If only I was still local, I’d be there! (a good tautology that works for all occasions)

    Have a grand time!

    Around 2.30PM on Saturday, December 19, during a historic snowstorm, residents at the intersection of 14th and U Streets NW started throwing snowballs at passing Hummers.

    One of the cars pelted was driven by a plainclothes police officer identified only as Det. Baylor. Baylor got out of his car and brandished his gun at the crowd.

    Reason.tv’s Dan Hayes was on the scene, capturing the tense confrontation between police and citizens who chanted “Don’t bring a gun to a snowball fight!”

    Approximately 5 minutes; harsh language throughout.
