it'd probably be a bigger one if it Rayshard Brooks weren't killed. the ATL beef with the governor has sucked up a lot of oxygen too.

I saw a woman and her assumed children setting up to sell lemonade. I wondered about their motive. we did it as children...just for fun but their set up didn’t seem that way...

4 little girls too makes me cringe everytime i see it people are rude and mean, then you have the potential for them to get hit by a car. i hate it.
ive never seen the threats you speak of though the ones around my way are polite
not that i dont want them to do it, i just wish it evolved a bit
we can get water anywhere give the people something they want selling the water just seems like a way to beg for change without looking like you’re begging for change

As long as you are selling something besides drugs

though I wouldn't want mine out there. just seemed like an easy way to get a few bucks. now that its so common, shit's bound to get wild.
seems like the cops weren't bothering them, even though there are laws against walking in traffic and selling without permits, etc. but now, that might change since some of them are doing too much.

Like the kids here - the most egregious places I've seen are off University Ave, on Northside right before North Ave, and on 10th Street. Kids literally walking up to people's cars, walking in between cars. I get it but that shit is hella dangerous.

one kid almost got hit a couple of times, trying to get to the other corner. after darting out a few times on a green light, he finally decided to stay put.

and kids routinely ran out my into traffic.
I asked how many kids were hit by cars in my art class and half the room raised their hand.
Kid 1: “You passed out for a minute when you got hit”
Kid 2: “But I still got up tho once I woke up”
Add money to the equation and these kids gonna dart out all day
