Lemme guess... the cop accompanies the kid while the kid shops for the parents so the parents don't have to be paranoid that someone's going to steal said kid?

I don't help cops with shat like this.
In fact I will not help a cop unless he/she is in imminent danger.
It's payback for that traffic ticket I did not deserve for driving in the very freshly painted "traffic gore" in a part of town I had never driven through before. In Atlanta.

I have particpted in this in the past. IMHO, It is very rewarding to all involved. Most of these kids wouldn't have much of a Christmas without such programs, and, amazinghly they often want "things" for others, not themselves. If you attend, however, you will probaly end up reaching in your wallet  |

Uhoh. "Another Tennessee Valley retailer is going out of business. K-B Toys has filed for bankruptcy and company officials say they will immediately begin "Going Out of Business" sales." according to WRCB-TV3. |

All of them are closing, I read it was something about a lead paint shortage in China and the price of cheaply made toys was gonna double.

Regardless of their financial woes, they were most generous to the youngsters involved in today's festivities.

It's payback for that traffic ticket I did not deserve for driving in the very freshly painted "traffic gore" in a part of town I had never driven through before. In Atlanta. First of all, it helps the KIDS, not the COPS. Another window into your depraved psyche. Then, who needs your help, with anything except perhaps butt-wiping, at which I suspect you're an expert? I've gotten 'help' from your ilk before, and it usually comes with a price I'm not willing to pay, especially while holding my nose with both hands. You keep it; you need it worse than I do, like the quarter tip you leave on a $20 tab at Waffle House. Finally: Go to Court with your fraudulent ticket, or pay the $2 and shut the h*ll up. It'll be your 'gift' to the rest of the World. |
