Regarding the Oct. 12 newspaper and the girl nabbed for throwing gum at an officer: Did she do this on purpose, or, like 99.9 percent of teenagers, did she just spit out her gum?

With overweight tractor-trailers, speeding motorists, drug dealers on corners, etc., I'm relieved that the state trooper hunted down Manheim Township's notorious gum-spitter.

Give me a break!

And if her aim was actually that good that she purposely flicked her gum on to a speeding police vehicle going under an underpass they should recruit her to the Police Academy, not prosecute her! biggrin.gif
