Arrested for Selling Lemonade – That’s Absurd.


According to Capitol Police, it’s illegal to sell Lemonade on “Capitol Grounds” without a permit. Permit being a fancy for, “you can’t unless you pay us first, allow us to regulate you and cut us in on a portion of your profit (they’ll call that tax). This past weekend local DC area activist, including several from Virginia CopBlock, went out to “liberate lemons” by setting up their own lemonade stand (see video above or this UStream by Meg). more at www.copblock.org
