But after 20 minutes of selling lemonade made from their gallon jugs of bottled water and Kool-Aid packets, a health inspector asked for their license. They didn't have one, and the inspector warned them to stop or face up to a $500 fine.

Revenue tickets. Next time hire some illegal immigrants to sell your lemonade. No prosecution will come down.

Multnomah County's top elected official apologized Thursday for health inspectors

"We're sorry this got press..."

“Anyone who thinks this 7 yo should be forced to buy a license has sh** for brains”

So true.

Sadly,

law and order republicans are contrary to liberty. That is demon-strated (like my misspelling? I think I will copyright it) time and again on issues of this nature. Where authority is concerned many Freepers are strangely compliant. It's weird and contrary to the Boston of Paul
Revere.

County appologizes, but city commissioner said she thought they were right to shut down the stand.

“City Commissioner Amanda Fritz said she and Mayor Sam Adams will present a plan for Last Thursday in the next two weeks. She declined to discuss details, though she noted that vendors at Last Thursday don’t pay vendor fees, which she said is “different from any other street fair” in Portland.”

“She added she believes the health inspectors were right to shut down the lemonade stand.”

“When you’ve got 15,000 people, it’s no longer a neighborhood event, it’s a regional event,” she said. “The county has the responsibility to fairly enforce the rules on permits and food handlers’ permits.”

What a dipstick. But remember where this is happening.
