On Friday night on U Street, an area full of bars and restaurants, a large group of FBI and other federal agents took part in arresting a single man for publicly smoking marijuana, according to witnesses. (Possession of marijuana is legal in the District, though public consumption is not.)

“There’s so much other shit happening in this city, and you guys are arresting him for smoking weed?” an onlooker asks feds, who appear embarrassed, in a video posted by independent journalist Hannah Gais. “For weed!”

    What the leftists and liberals that spout this bullshit are up to, I have no idea. I usually think they just want to come off as sophisticates or something.

    In my experience, they’ve given up.

    Also, don’t mind the downvotes, the trolls are out and about heavy this weekend.

      Downvotes don’t bother me much. I find that internet points are worth about as much as BBS points were…
