This scenario is ridiculous, but I’m not sure I’d reflectively call this a stupid law. I don’t think we’d be referring to this as a “stupid law” if it was being used to shut down some dude from the Middle East who was selling roasted goat in his front yard.
The differences between lemonade and roast goat are clear, or they should be.
BTW, I buy lemonade from a neighborhood “stand” (card table with three elementary school age girls) several times a year - including just before Mother’s Day and just before Father’s day. The kids I buy from use sugar, lemon juice, and a few real lemons. They serve big ice-cold plastic cups of lemonade, and I like their attention to detail. Once they reach high school, I’ll probably stop buying from them. I would strongly object to enforcement against them now, while I would find enforcement still wrong but much more understandable if they were old enough to work legally.
Who is gonna buy roasted goat out of a front yard ? You ? Most certainly NOT Me.
I would.
I think people have a right to sell roasted goat in their front yards.
But just because someone is selling it doesn’t mean I have to buy it.
I’d certainly buy some roasted goat and wash it down with cold lemonade.
It's called "Caveat Emptor". Would you buy roasted goat from Muhammed?
I’d support the muslin selling goat as well.
