Nick McGlynn, of our tireless video staff, gives us an eyewitness account of this wretched crime: "Girl (Cassandra Wu) was arrested for splashing water from a water bottle in Union Square right now! The water gun fight was canceled because the parks department didn't sanction it. They arrested her and took her away! Everyone here with water guns are in an uproar!!" So, yeah. Seems a bit silly. Though it's also kind of annoying and twee and "I'm whimsical, fuck me!" (thanks Ms. Garofalo) to have a public water gun fight anyway (no offense meant, Nick), so I'm not really sure where I come down on this.
