After a crumby ending, donated dough rolls in for 2 cookie deliverers

But political conservatives who read the story were convinced the judge must be a liberal activist intent on being politically correct. On the other hand, liberals said the judge and neighbor must be conservatives, who tend to see “terrorists behind every bush and on every porch,” even in a quiet rural neighborhood just south of Durango. — Electa DraperAfter a crumby ending, donated dough rolls in for 2 cookie deliverers (Denver Post)

Interesting tid-bit from a follow-up to the story about the two teenagers who were sued by a woman and ordered to pay $900 for leaving home-baked cookies at the woman’s front porch.

P.S. Electa Draper? Really?

  • I think it's funny though that people donated all this money not knowing that the judge only awarded $1. Just goes to show how well & accurately news articles cover law suits! haha!

    I hope the story would've gotten this much attention if the girls had been legally shot dead in the neighbor's yard in Texas. ;) hehehe.

    Why didn't the woman's medical insurance cover the woman's hospital bills? Exactly HOW LATE were these girls delivering cookies? And how well did these girls know their neighbors?
    I think I'd want to know the answers to those questions too, before *I* had donated one dime, or made any speculations as to the political leanings of any of the parties involved. LOL.
