BAG OF CANDY

A young boy was arrested and brought before the judge for taking a bag of candy from the shelf of a local store. The owner of the store pressed charges because he wanted the boy to learn a lesson.

After a lecture from the judge, the judge asked the young boy if he had anything to say before he passed sentence.

The boy sat very quietly with his head hung low and then slowly raised his head and focused his eyes on the eyes of the judge.

The boy said, very slowly, "Judge have you ever stolen anything?"

The room was very quiet and finally the judge said, "Case dismissed, you are set free."
