why were the kids not put in foster homes? After 11 pm is after curfew and the parents should lose thier children (they can keep the goat)

Are you Serious Smith… The Parents should lose custody of the kids because they were out after curfew???? This CAN”T be a real comment!!!

Ah, come on. Haven’t you ever pulled a prank when you were a kid? Good show, gals.

Really Smith? What if the kids snuck out of the house? And what makes you think the government can do a better job of raising any kid?

Your idea is just like other freedom killing ideas (e.g. no smoking in bars, bans on fast food) that the nutty lefties come up with to try to protect us from ourselves. Not well thought out and totally inappropriate.

Funny as hell – glad the officer handled it as he did too.
This is one of those stories that will be legendary in the family, if not the community.
Tooooooo funny

Smith must be perfect. Store tantrum? Foster care. Let’s be glad those kids weren’t picked up by the wrong person at that time of night.

I think ‘Smith’ was probably trying to get a reaction, and it worked. These little girls obviously thought this through, and had a plan. Kuddos to them. Next time maybe they should ‘plan’ something that won’t get them in trouble.

You know, it’s stories like this that really just get my goat!

I think the story is funny. Police have to be given kudos for handling this so tactfully. My question is how did they get this goat home without mom and dad knowing? they cant be that cluelessl

They were not in Mpls….they did not shoot the goat…..

“It is unlawful for any minor person under the age of sixteen (16) years to be or loiter upon the streets or public places between the hours of 10:30 p.m. and 5:00 a.m.”
heres the Mankato laws.

The girls were breaking the law and should be punished !! SMITH IS RIGHT !!

How do you suggest we punish them Frank? Take away their blankets and stuffed animals for a week?

I never would have thought about SNEAKING out of the house at that time of the night, or going to the zoo and STEALING a goat! I guess people don’t properly raise their children and teach them not to do things like that. I’m glad to hear they were unharmed because a lot could have went wrong in that situation. I hold the irresponsible parents responsible. 6&7! Come on!

I loved this story. We need some new to make us laugh. I still cannot believe they got so far.

Unbelievable that no one stopped these two girls until the police noticed? Hmm?

Heaven forbid, if we make light of this there will be copy cat goat kidnappings by 6 and 7 year olds all over the country. Damn the main stream media for promoting such criminal acts just to raise their ratings!

This has satanic underlyings.

I say invoke the conservative 3-strike rule.

Two more goat thefts and it’s the slammer for life for both of them…
