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!!!!

Having been to several Best Buy stores in Maryland and knowing the caliber of dumbass clerks usually infesting the place - this surprises me very little.

They are usually the "Look at me, world!!!" type of idiot you can almost always hear long before you see them.

You probably get the picture....

I'd ALMOST say I'm surprised that the cops fall into the same idiot gaggle....but then again - we ARE talking about Maryland here.

Yeah... I remember reading the alert from the dept of homeland security... "Be on the lookout for terrorists weilding two dollar bills... Be careful... You can identify the bills by this discription: That guy Jefferson on them looks particularly dangerous. He's known for writing some of the most dangerous documents ever seen by any government! And on the back of the bills, you'll see a bunch of troublemakers planning and colluding to overthrow their lawful government!"

Can't do racial profiling, because it's wrong... It's nice to know that at least they can do currency profiling... You know, most cash register drawers don't have enough cubbyholes, so thank goodness they got this anarchist off the streets!

I hope this guy sues EVERYBODY involved! And I hate it when people do that!

Other than the man arrested and the Secret Service folks, everyone involved in this incident is just too unfathomably stupid to be permitted to waste oxygen any longer.

Stupidity at this level ought to be a capital crime.

I worked for a department store years ago and the owner was superstitious and if we received a $2.00 bill he told is to get rid if it when making change because they were bad luck. He was serious about it and would get close to hysterical if he found one in a register.

They sure were bad luck for this guy.

I saw a guy pass a Slick Times Three-Dollar-Bill at a Pizza Hut. Cashier took it without a second thought.

That is going to be one rich customer. I'll bet Best Buy wishes they'd let the whole installation thing slide.

They got their $114 bucks.

At a few million in legal fees and settlement funds.

They're a little nervous, but they're big-time stupid.

Best Buy needed to fire the clerk and give this guy a $1,000 gift certificate.

$2 bills are always given as change at the gift shop at Monticello, Thomas Jefferson's home in Charlottesville, Virginia.

No. It is a sign that there is an education drop out that is wide reaching. This is just the social ineptitude that will open the door to fascism. Hold on to your steering wheels folks, we are soon to be on a wild ride through history!

Lucky stiff, he just hit the jackpot. Best Buy and the police will be paying him a sum of money.
