Yes, it is absurd. But such incidents do happen, when you live under the police state. That said, most of my anger is directed towards the lowlife scum, who informed the police that "illegal" lemonade sales are going on in the neighborhood. Some say that it was their neighbor, but we don't know for sure, as the cops are refusing to reveal the identity of the informer.
What if any stranger came and mix something unwanted and unhygienic things add into that lemonade as disguise to help those little girls, which may sometimes cause food poison to the consumers and also those lemonade are not tested in Lab according to the rules and regulations.
Those girls don't seem to be low-IQ kids. They will refuse outside help from anyone, especially that from the strangers. And regarding food poisoning, do you know how many people in the US gets food poisoning every year, by eating food from the McDoland's and KFC? IMO, the lemonade made by these kids seems to be safer than Coke or Pepsi. At least it doesn't contain any heavy metals or harmful chemicals.
