...This kid is smarter than your average 'Murrikan.

Starts off with an annoying FB share:

So it it more than the sappy, made-up hero dejour, which made me feel good.  But then I saw this:

And when you saw her - were you scared? Did you know it was her? What was going through your mind?

I wasn't scared, I was just [thinking], "Save the little girl, make sure she was okay."

So you got her, you took her back, you gave her to the police first? Or did you take her straight to the family?

I took her to... I think it was a firefighter.

Smart as fuck.  When there's trouble, you go to a firefighter.  They are supposed to save people.  Cops are supposed to assume guilt and beat people.

This kid is brave, motivated to help, AND brilliant.

Aw!  That gave me the good feels.

Very, very smart kid. Firefighters HELP people.

I needed something positive on a Tuesday.
