Get a Rope

10-Year-Old Girl Fined $50 For Lemonade Stand At NY Park - wcbstv.com: "It's a summertime tradition for kids everywhere – setting up a lemonade stand and hoping to make a few bucks off of thirsty passersby.

That is, unless you do it on city park property – as did one little girl who was ticketed for trying to serve up summer refreshment.

To 10-year-old Clementine Lee, setting up a lemonade stand at Riverside Park on a hot Saturday afternoon seemed like a fun way to make money.

Instead, she and her dad got slapped with a $50 fine."

It doesn't matter the who or why, these days it's only about the revenue. She should ask Obama for clemency.

How much salary were the three agents getting for making this high-end bust?

Morons.

That's why they were in the park. It was across the street from the house, and they didn't have to get on the lawn.
