I support law enforcement, but sometimes I'm left scratching my head. The item from June 30 is one of them, about police removing an ice cream vendor from the park. I can image how it went down" "ATTENTION YOUNGSTERS, ATTENTIONS YOUNGSTERS!!! PUT DOWN YOUR ICE POPS AND STEP AWAY FROM THE ICE CREAM TRUCK...PRONTO..."
