People are odd. Greg Raymond Denny Jr had only met his distant cousin Cherriebelle Hibbard a few times. Then one day he decided to dress as a US Marshal, burst into her Southern California home and force her to move back to the Philippines at gunpoint. "No motive was released." [AP]

But you left out the best part- of how a fake marshal with a fake badge bluffed his way past TSA.

Hopefully they at least made him take off his shoes.

@GuidedbyVices: Story says "he then used a fake badge to get through San Diego airport security and put her on a plane to her home country, according to a police report."

So that explains it.

@Xylo: Yes, I know- TSA will hassle you for nothing, while some Redneck pretending to be a Federal Marshal can waltz through. (Did he get to keep his gun?)

(And this is besides the fact that Marshals DON'T DEPORT PEOPLE. Your average Louisiana Civil Servant is more observant than TSA.)

So, how many Teabaggers are out there now, thinking "this is a really good idea! Just make sure you deport people who don't know you!"

@Xylo: That is why people are color-coded, so you know which ones to kick out (or keep out in the first place).

Cherriebelle? What?

@BettyCrocker: My people have a penchant for strange and wonderful sobriquets. Case in point — Ferdinand Marcos's son Ferdinand Jr., aka "Bong Bong".

?WTF? Who would think there is a slew of Hibbards (let alone someone named Cherriebelle) living in the Philippines.
