I guess you'd probably get in trouble for calling your officers absolute morons, eh?

I cannot believe this is real.....but it is.......unbelievable, absolutely unbelievable!!!!

LOL! They would have probably seen nothing queer about it if he had paid with three dollar bills.

I'm scratching my head on that one. WTH!

What do $2 bills have to do with a terrorist attack.

I hope some enterprising reporter puts this story on page one of his local paper, if only to clear this poor guy's name!

I hope he sues best buy. I suspect he will own that store if he does. He should also sue the police for false arrest. He has a rock solid case here. There is no excuse for a citizen being treated in that manner.

Mr Two Dollar Bill should count himself lucky that he wasn't Tasered!

Can't be too careful after 9-11.

"Mr. Burns! I'm so sorry the grocery clerk had you committed. I'll never shop there again."

The USSS guy says that sometimes ink smears on bill currency?!? Is that accurate?

Ah, good ol' Balmer. There's a reason they call it Charm City.

"It's a sign that we're all a little nervous in the post-9/11 world."

The stupid statement of a man who knows, deep down, his department is about to be cutting this gentleman a substantial check. Then again, this being Balmer, they can probably find a judge that'll throw the case out and put the guy in jail for contempt.

I am normally against lawsuits - but this one BEGS to be filed - and I would imagine that MANY lawyers would LOVE to get their hands on this one - This could literally be a multi-million dollar suit. And it really would serve Best Buy and the local PD right. I just hate that taxpayers would have to pay for any judgment against the cops.

Absolutely INSANE.

I hope he gets a gigantic settlement from the Baltimore County police for false arrest.

So I guess they'll pay the settlement in $2 bills, too.

My favorite Best Buy moment, as a clerk held my $50 bill up to the light to 'check it out':

Me: Ever catch a counterfeit fifty?

Clerk: No.

Me: Anyone you know that works here that's ever 'caught' a counterfeit fifty?

Clerk: No.

Me: Ever hear of anyone ever, at either this store, or any other Best Buy, finding a counterfeit fifty?

Clerk: No.

Me: Better safe than sorry, huh?

Clerk: It's just what we're supposed to do.
