So, when I asked if DC could have as much fun in the snow as they did in Madison a few weeks ago, this isn’t exactly what I had in mind:

You don’t bring a gun to a snowball fight.

According to an eyewitness, a D.C. Police detective (pictured above w/ gun) went nuts after kids pelted his Hummer with snowballs at 14th and U Streets NW this afternoon. The veteran detective got out of his car and eventually grabbed for his gun, displaying it to the crowd. He did not immediately identify himself as a police officer. He calmed down once his fellow uniformed cop arrived. Apparently, someone called 911 to report a man with gun.

So, yeah – that kinda harshes the mellow a bit.

But, in more fun news, Tommy Wells has the right idea – as Mike DeBonis Sven Frostington shows:

Layers, indeed.  Dress like an onion, Tommy.  Also, nice hat.
