Cop Brings Gun To A Snowball Fight

Wth over a foot of snow on the ground and more on the way, Twitter users in Washington D.C. decided it was time for a good old fashioned snow ball fight—It was all in good fun, until a few balled a maroon Hummer trying to navigate the snowy street.

Behind the wheel of the H3 was an off-duty cop, who apparently thought snowballs where lethal. Out of the vehicle, he began brandishing a gun. Obviously, this is not how you deal with a bunch of web and social networking savvy folks bent on having a little a winter fun. Almost immediately, pictures and video of the officer were uploaded to web and shared on social networks. As Shelly Palmer reports on his daily video blog, "Just another reminder that people everywhere are watching what you do in public, and then, sharing it with the world."
