Give me break. This was nothing more than a pissed off mother who was pissed off about being denied coverage and said something she shouldn't have and apologized for it. She didn't have a friggin manifesto, or bomb making materials, or anything even remotely like that.

Are you OK now that anyone who now gets angry at the ever worsening customer service and health care in this country can get hauled away for 15 years for a verbal indiscretion.

Wake up.
