Legal???
Who knows; with the cops being drunk, high, disguised as pigeons, and eating Dunkin Donuts, we do as we please.

Big deal

I was at market today, and the vendors on either side of me [my stall was setup in the middle of a long row of stalls] were both ladies with small children. Both of these ladies were breastfeeding naked children, while they were selling milk, meats and yogurts. Their tops off, with their infant in one arm sucking away, while the ladies were talking to customers, handling produce and making change.

Now part of the time their infants did wear diapers and part of the time they did not. Part of the time these ladies had their shirts covering themselves and part of the time they did not.

The market was crowded with vendors and customers.

Is that a problem?

I'm sure it at least breaks a few health codes... you should call the cops and make a report. Or give them a brochure for the bowling team...

I was not offended.

I was not a customer buying any of their produce.

I am not filing a complaint with anyone.

ok, so to explain the walking in front of a window naked remark I made earlier....you could be charged with indecent exposure....that puts you on "the list"!

great job with this thread today guys!!

(oh, that does not include nursing a child by the way....at least in MY part of Maine)

[Let's tell the truth]

When some child molester grab's your grandchild you will not be making a joke about child molester's. When your child start's taking drug's and you find out he got them from your local police's child you won't be laughing . When you are robbed and someone goes threw and invades your whole house and you can never feel safe again you will not think it is a joke.When it's your child that is killed in Iraq will that be something we should ignore and make fun of?? I don't think so. When it's your elderly parent who is being robbed by a DHS worker will that be funny to me?? No it won't.When that police officer drives drunk again , and he will, and kill's your husband that had just gone to the store for a gallon of milk will that be funny to me?? No it won't.

There is a time to be funny , but there is also a time to smell the roses and when they start to stink it's time to get rid of them.Someday one of these thing's above will happen to you and I for one will not be laughing about it.And when that time happen's I'm sure you will remember me.

lttt,,,you are the one that started naming names,,up in caribou, and making blanket statements, why no one should move there (even tho you claim your house is for sale)
and your other blanket statements, about maine and its regions, are just that blanket broad brush statements that seem to be very bias'd..

the crimes you mention are very serious,,however,,you cant condemn the whole, town region and state,,
most of us,,love our state of maine, we make the best of what we have and the situation,,,
you lose credibility with your blanket statements,,and the negative generalizations, about our whole state,
