The Bus Must've Had Foot Warmers..

Without question, I'm relieved that there was no actual kidnapping, but I am also angry at one Jennifer Wilbanks, and I've never met her.

I'm angry at her, and I'm angry at whomever made the decision not to press charges. Last I checked, being a complete flake doesn't excuse one from responsibility for criminal behavior.

I'm also perturbed at the airport police officer who gave her a teddy bear. A teddy bear? Has no one noticed that this person is thirty-two? Granted, she acted like a child when she ran away from home instead of confronting her family and -- oh, perhaps -- her fiancé about her insecurity. Oh, yes, she was sobbing. Whoop-dee. I'd have said, "Lady, you'll have plenty more to cry about once you get the bill for all the taxpayer money you wasted, all the Amber Alert system resources you squandered, and all the court costs associated with your trial."

I can guarantee you that if I had over 100 police officers looking for me in a missing-persons situation, and I called 911 with a phony story about a kidnapping, they wouldn't be giving me a teddy bear.

I'm getting madder by the second, so I'd better post this and go pay bills or something. Hmpf.
