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!”

    Make them feel as uncomfortable as they have made us all feel. Tail them for no reason while driving, be aggressive or outright shun them. Call them hateful names and mirror their behavior back on them.

    The worst of them feel more emboldened than ever and I bet they start threatening - if they haven’t already - to call ICE on you.
