The cup cakes, cookies and brownies are sold for $1 each. Andrew actually made $129 on his first day and $30 on the second before the Pol told the cops to shut the operation down.
Be sure you know what your local laws are. Your kids selling lemonade in the corner might be illegal.
Heck, Lucy peddling Psychiatric advise to Charlie Brown might be considered practicing without a license.
Rush Limbaugh-inspired Dan' Bake Sale might be considered illegal.
It has come to this in these United States of America.

If they’d have used rainbow colored icing, they’d be heroes.

If this happened to one of my kids, I’d go to that bureaucrat’s house and beat the hell out of him. I’d save his lard ass the trouble, and call the police on myself when finished.

Two things: 1) Michael Wolfensohn must be a Democrat. 2) His actions have just created two young conservative, small-government advocates.

I suggest the better way to do something about it is to find out which legislators passed this stupid law in the first place and hold them responsible for it ( i.e., demand the law be repealed ). If they refuse to listen, TARGET THEM FOR DEFEAT IN THE NEXT ELECTIONS USING THIS INCIDENT AS A WAR CRY.
Reagan used to say that the country ought to be very scared when Congress is in session. It seems that the principle applies even to local legislatures. These bums have nothing better to do but to make laws that intrude into the lives of ordinary citizens and waste our money (and in this case Police's time).

Look at the pictures of the cup cakes in post #10. The icing ARE rainbow colored. Didn’t do them any good.
I know what their problem is — Chappaqua is a WHITE community. They don’t have a White Al Sharpton to fight for them.

Correct. Anything is illegal if a bureaucrat insists a permit must be issued. Yard sales are illegal. Craig’s list is illegal. E-BAY is illegal. Everything is illegal in a country that predicates its justice on government approval. We need to make any government regulation that attempts to control public activity illegal. The government is not society and has no authority to interfere in the business of society.
