Fucking kids, man. You try to do ’em a favor, like get ’em something refreshing to drink, and you end up end jail just because you left the kids in the hot car while you were getting ’em something refreshing to drink.

So says David Shawfield, who was arrested on Friday for letting his kids bake in their own juices while he ran into the supermarket to get them more juices.

I guess that cops and folks who don’t live in Florida won’t ever realize that letting your young’uns marinate in the humidity of the Deep South atmosphere and tasty faux-leather seat-sweat is nothing more or less than a Florida tradition.
