Yep. With an arrest on their record. Which prevents acceptance to many schools, many scholorships, and some entry into the military. For eating a snack.
If it is important enough for an arrest, they should arrest everyone. If it is not (that a fine and citation will do), then it should be the same for everyone. I just intensely dislike (always have, always will) when different classes of people are treated differently under the law.
