Replying to Captain Dumbass Found in Utah Wildnerness

OK- I'm sure most of you have heard this, but this is my two cents on the story. This kid who was "lost" in the mountains of Utah, apparently ran from his rescuers because his dad told him not to talk to strangers. I realize this kid is only 11, but for shit's sake people..... A rational person, even a dehydrated 11-year-old would kind of get the clue that after a couple of days, all those dudes on 4-wheelers and horses, and headlamps aren't "bad guys." What the Hell. I'm not buying it. The kid's a retard.
