And Authorities do go after McDonalds. Banning Trans-Fats, banning junk food advertising during childrens programming, etc.

Certainly not enough, considering the general health of US citizens. But anyway, that's not tue point of this thread.

If somebody takes their child to McDonalds everyday and he gets fat, why is that the companies fault?

Its like saying "My son went to war and got shot! I demand compensation!"

I GLEEFULLY bought some lemonade from some kids in my neighborhood yesterday.

They should crack down on McDonald's and other fast food outlets if they really cared about health. They don't.

Super Size Me: If you have seen that movie he attempted to hurt Rotten Ronald’s and he did in a big way.

You defend so much of the law and defending the government. The law is the law, good for the law when most of us break it at least 50% of the time. Okay so they bust 3 little girls. Explain too me why they don't bust any of the drug operations so fast as they did to these girls?

Because drug dealers totally operate openly with a stand that says "Drugs for sale here", like these lemonade girls did, right?

It's frickin lemonade. What is it going to do, kill me? It's my choice if I want to buy something that could be contaminated. Happens every time I buy a carton of eggs or vegetables or meat; I bet they had permits, but they still sell contaminated products anyway.

In essence, the government is preventing people from setting up a business. Who benefits from this? Other businesses that want to reduce competition, of course. Like the demand by hairdressers to make it illegal to cut hair unless you have a license. Soon it'll be something like you can't babysit without a license, or mow the lawn without a license. The only people who benefit are the big businesses with the money to pay the permit fees.

And just how many people died from drinking some kid's lemonade? And where is the government spending resources to protect citizens? I think there are more dangerous things out there, like real criminals that kill and [censored] people, that the fuzz should be concentrating on.

Yes it's your choice. But is it your choice to get sick from the lemonade if some foul ingredient was in it?

It's a matter of possibility. Kids usually aren't that renowned for being the most sanitary bunch of humans. And they aren't taking away from their time to hunt down kids trying to sell lemonade to pedestrians, she simply drove by and saw it.

I don't care if it's a possibility. If people die from getting sick from some lemonade, then the Law will deal with that matter. But to completely forbid industriousness is completely insane! Isn't that US government hostile enough to business that they need to start going after lemonade stands? Are we so coddled, cowardly, and weak that we actually want the government to?

Law Enforcement already go after raw milk producers, denying people their right to choose wholesome milk instead of the trash the USDA allows to be put out. They go after private food cooperatives for selling truly organic food.

This is tyranny and rule through fear. Plain and simple.

Heaven help us if a person sets up a Kool-Aid stand...the horrior...I agree this is wrong on so many levels :facepalm: , I mean their kids for Pete sakes it's not like they're going to start an muti-million dollar enterprise or anything.

:facepalm: Don't cops have better things to, like bust meth and crack labs and arrest you know, real criminals? I can't think of a better way tell kids, "If you work hard, all you'll get are expensive regulations to meet." :facepalm:
