All of America and much of the world watched, prayed and worried for two hours as this runaway flying saucer balloon, that supposedly held a young boy, was blown for many miles while being tracked by news helicopters and rescue workers before coming down in a wheat field. When it was discovered that the boy was not inside, we all spent three more hours hoping and praying that the young boy was hiding (afraid of getting in trouble) instead of his little broken body lying somewhere; waiting to be found.
We were all so relieved to find out little Falcon Heene had indeed been hiding. Then newscaster began questioning whether it was a hoax. I was upset by the speculations because it put a cloud of suspicion over this family that might not be deserved. Now that it looks like it really was a hoax... I am much more upset and angry... Angry that parents would treat a child like this... Angry that people would abuse rescue worker's time and resources... Angry at being fooled.
The only thing Americans hate worse than being lied to is being made fools of!!!
These folks have even more reason to be angry.
