Monsters. You’re all monsters in England and should be stopped. When we had the chance, during world war 2, while our army was protecting you from becoming Hitler’s lampshades, we should’ve put an end to the British people once and for all. But because we didn’t, this is what I am writing about.
An innocent 5 year old girl was partaking in the sale of lemonade in the street, a western tradition steeped with both sentiment and dignity, teaching the youth basic economics, was fined $200 by an asshole heroic cop for not having the proper permits.
The girl has been selling cups of refreshing beverage with her father for 65 cents, next to their home, which was also adjacent to an ongoing music festival.
One officer switched on a portable camera attached to his uniform and then proceeded to read a lengthy statement essentially telling the young girl she would be fined $195 (£150) because she didn’t have a trading permit.
The girl burst into tears, asking her father again and again, “Have I done a bad thing?”
The pair packed up their jugs of lemonade and walked home, with the young girl sobbing the whole way, according to her dad.
Spicer said that the whole situation left his daughter shaken and afraid.
“I said maybe we can apply for the right permit and do it again at some stage. And she said, ‘That’s a bit scary,’” he told NBC’s News’ British partner ITV News.
“We are very sorry that this has happened,” a spokesperson for the local authorities told NBC News’ British partner ITV News. “We expect our enforcement officers to show common sense, and to use their powers sensibly. This clearly did not happen.
“The fine will be canceled immediately and we have contacted Professor Spicer and his daughter to apologise.”
Sure, now fish and chips are revoking the fine, after public outcry. But it still doesn’t negate the fact that the local police department is filled with reprobates.
Here was the little girl having the time of her life.
