Well, she really had nothing better to do. I'm sure a little righteous indignation, no matter how misplaced and erroneous, made her day.

I'm also sure that Mr. Snuffy and Ms. Bobkins, and all the other cats at home, as well as her colleagues in the administrative pool at the State Office of Weights and Measures (Division of Grocery Produce Isle Scale Investigation) are still hearing about her brave stand against anarchist scofflaw cyclists (one disrespectful rapscallion in particular), and the jack-booted thugs of the fascist state trying to keep her from enforcing the laws as she sees fit. Not to mention the disrespectful treatment she received, but did not deserve as a well respected citizen and State Official.

You do realize she was struck by two cyclists at some time in the past, and she really threw that water (brown water?) to enforce the laws, hoping to turn this one around before he committed further and more severe atrocities against mankind and the good people of Chicago. It is a slippery slope is it not?

It's good to know Alaska isn't the only state with a surplus of bored indignant cat ladies without many friends and wayyyyyy to much time on their hands, although I do feel a bit sorry for her (them). They are still annoying.
