Thank goodness the New Jersey police were there to shut them down. Otherwise the terrorists win.

Quote:Teens Shoveling Snow? Without Licenses?? Quick, Call the Cops

What could be more suspicious than two thugs skulking around a suburban neighborhood at night under cloak of snow?

That's apparently what some red-alert citizen of Bound Brook, New Jersey, thought when he or she called the police to investigate this danger... that turned out to be two high school seniors handing out fliers for their snow-shoveling enterprise.

You'd think that would be the end of that, but no. As MyCentralJersey.com reports, the two kids were then pulled over by a cop and told to stop:

In Jersey they were likely stopped because shoveling is part of the civil service union's responsibility.

My first thought as well. They probably did b!tch about this. They did the same crap when i was living near there b/c some boyscouts were volunteering to clean a park.

******* scum are the NJ public sector unions. I'd bet willing to bet $ that the rat was a union member.

When I was growing up in Jersey I shoveled snow to make a few bucks. Delivered newspapers, too. Didn't have a license or permit to do either - I was living life on the edge.

And maybe you had a lemonade stand without a food permit?

Wow. Just one step ahead of the law ....

People complaining about the kids are probably complaining that their driveway is still blocked by snow. Some folks just live to complain.

During the blizzards of the 90's I made over $100 a day shoveling snow. This is just nuts.
