Felony snowball throwing charges have been leveled against two Virginia college students for allegedly pelting a city plow and an undercover police car during Saturday's blizzard. Charles Gill and Ryan Knight, both 21, were nabbed by cops in Harrisonburg, where they attend James Madison University. According to police, the pair first targeted a city plow last Saturday afternoon. The driver responded by calling cops to report the frosty fusillade. When police responded to the scene in a bid to identify the assailants, their unmarked vehicle also came under an icy assault. Gill and Knight, a guard on JMU's basketball team, were then apprehended and booked into jail for throwing missiles at occupied vehicles, a felony.

Interestingly, it didn’t even snow there!
I saw a guy interviewed on Fox about the big snowball fight in DC and I was appalled that he said he spit a loogie into the snowballs first. The reporter laughed like this was all a big joke. What a disgusting culture we have become.
Snowballs are now missles...
Snow plow operator to police, “But, but, but, the snowballs were coming from EVERYWHERE!!! There were so many of them!!!!”*crying now* “I was so scared...afraid for my life...I thought I had seen my wife and kids for the last time...” “Thousands of snowballs!!!!!!!!!”
“What??? Only two throwing them???” “ohhhhhh...”
Can’t get snow on the snowplow dontcha know...
BASTARDS!!!
Snowballs, icy missiles of death!
