When i used to see the sign 'shoplifters will be prosecuted' i thought that prosecuted was something like electrocuted and they were put to death!
A childhood belief about criminals
others believed things like this
- when I was younger I used to believe that prosecuted meant that you would be killed!— tony
- I thought for the longest time that a No Standing traffic sign meant no person should stand near that sign.— Shannon
- My dad told me that the reason Birds didn't get electrocuted on overhead wire was they had rubber feet!!— Derricki
- I thought that the sign "!" meant: "look at the wonderful landscape"— Giorgos
- i always thought that a DEAD END sign
as where they put all the road kill.
— pav - when the sign on the highway said do not pass and dad did i thought he would be in great dangerAnon
