But what did he do? Took the easy way and delegated the dirty work to the police. The police, for goodness sake, for a misdemeanor (at most)! Overkill!
This puts me in mind of the song, Summertime Blues: “I’d like to help you, Son, but you’re too young to vote.” The guy was flexing his muscle, to children! Remarkable!
Get back to business, Mr. Councilman, and in your spare time, maybe you can run a Junior Achievement program in your local school, and reward young people for being entrepreneurial!

You think those kids were going to claim that income on their 1040s? And what about all those other kids with their tax-free allowances? I think it’s about time for these punks to start paying for their fancy schools on their own.
