A Wisconsin man was cited with disorderly conduct after buying beer for his sons, ages 2 and 4, at a county fair then getting belligerent with a police officer.
The 38-year-old isn't charged with anything for buying the beer because children in Wisconsin can drink if they're with their parents, according to a newspaper report.
A woman at the fair's beer tent thought the man was joking when he ordered two beers, "one for me and one for my 4-year-old son,” the Fond du Lac Reporter reported.

Andrew,
Please look at your second paragraph. You used the first "their" incorrectly. Where did you go to school?
Maybe you should take an English class.

How stupid & sick is this person. I can't call him a man because a man would have more sense than to buy beer for babies. He needs to be put away for life.

"He needs to be put away for life."
Uh, wow, that's a little extreme, don't you think? In MANY states it's perfectly legal for adults to give their kids alcohol if they're with them. The US has the oldest drinking age in the world. Beer & wine are deeply engrained in many European cultures and have been for centuries.
It's not like the guy was at a bar and buying the kid shots of whiskey.
