Young criminals ..........

http://www.thecoastalsource.com/news....cspx?rss=1669

Entrepreneurial spirit, work ethic and self-sufficiency must be crushed at an early age in the new America. Kids must learn to be dependent on the Government for their needs.

It happens somewhere every year. Wonder how many real crimes went on while the boys in blue were crushing the spirits of children?

It didn't say if they took Calypso up on their offer to provide the licenses and lemonade. I'll be looking for Calypso products next time I go to the store.

Why must we coddle our children and mold them into victims, when it comes to teaching them life lessons?

The girls wanted to open a lemonaide stand. Since this is 2011 and not 1956, They found out that they cannot legally operate one, even as children, without having a license. Those "mean Policemen" ethically and legally, don't have the option, of simply ignoring lawbreakers, regardless of age.

The funny thing is, the little girls simply moved on and decided to do chores and odd jobs, to make pool money (assuming thats swimming pool and not 8-ball ).

The parents and grownups are the one's throwing a hissy-fit.

Maybe the kids need to teach us something.

“We were not aware of how the lemonade was made, who made the lemonade, of what the lemonade was made with, so we acted accordingly by city ordinance,” Chief Morningstar said.


I call BS, the lowlife scum sucking taxman wasn't getting his cut so he had them shut down

Went to Marshfield Missouri today to do some shopping, a couple kids had a lemonaide stand along route CC...we stopped and had a couple. No cops around, no license was posted, but we knew where it came from because mom was watching from the porch.

We are all okay so far.....
