If you ask me, it would be bad enough spending six hours in a Walmart shopping, let alone sitting in a back room with a couple of obstinate security officers. That’s what happened to 14-year-old Sydney Robinson and a friend after the security guards at a Canadian Walmart accused Sydney of stealing a $1 pack of gum. They took Sydney and her friend into their custody to await arrival of police — who were unusually busy after the killing of a constable that day. So Sydney and her friend sat there for six hours, without food or water, while her parents, Scott and Diane Robinson, took turns staying with them.
Remember the ad that went “dentists recommend sugar-free gum for their patients who chew gum?” Now they’re trying to convince us to take up gum-chewing; yes, even to give gum to our small children to “protect” their teeth.
