You guys kill me. This is one of those things that you'd (BHD) be railing on if it was a black youth (who was percieved to have commited a crime), but since it was an old white guy you turn indignant.

Find me one specific person who was at fault in this situation and caused this guy anywhere close to enough grief that he should sue. You guys see this as a justification for a money grab from a business you don't like (who was not a fault in the least).
The cop is just as guilty.....since when is it a crime to spend legal USA currency......can we say false arrest.......exactly what crime did he commit? None is the correct answer.

Can your neighbor call the police and have you arrested for no reason what-so-ever? If they did what would you do.....? Keep quiet and suck it up is one thing I can bet you would not do.

And by the way...any vendor has to accept legal USA currency.....they can't argue if you try to use $5 bill we will have you arrested.
