Oh My God - let's give this cop a medal:
Man Ticketed For Selling Girl Scout Cookies With DaughterClap.NEW YORK -- A Long Island man was ticketed in Brooklyn for selling Girl Scout cookies with his 13-year-old daughter.
Hoi Louis was in Williamsburg delivering the cookies with his daughter over the weekend. Louis said it was his old neighborhood, before he moved to Bethpage, and he and his daughter have been selling Girl Scout cookies there since his daughter was in first grade.
At 4:50 p.m. Saturday a police captain and a uniformed officer pulled up to their van as they were unloading cookies. Louis said the captain from the 94th Precinct ticketed him for selling cookies without a license.
The NYPD said the man and his daughter were not delivering the cookies, but instead were selling the cookies from a table they had set up on the street.
The child's grandmother, who was in the van, said her granddaughter was frightened by the police and the girl's father was flabbergasted.
Clap.
Clap.
Clap.
Clap.
Clap. Brilliant - just brilliant. This cop deserves a medal or a commendation for thwarting this heinous crime.....I mean, we all know how addictive those Dos-si-dos are.
(Reminder to Self: Get more Dos-si-dos from munchkin before going out to sell cookies....)
Comments on Say What? Illegal Thin Mints
Hey, the law's the law. You break it you pay, what's the big deal? Because she was a sweet little Girl Scout? I didn't realize Girl Scouts were above the law. Besides, what's her father teaching her about citizenship if he decides he doesn't have to try to get a permit? He's teaching her that it's ok to do what you want to make sales, even break the law. Doesn't sound like good citizenship to me. Maybe if this was in their front yard I could see an issue. Street venders are a big issue in NYC.
