Totally insane. That is such a horrible thing to do to anyone, much less your family.

In related news, they'd just recently watched the Coen brothers' terrific 1984 debut Blood Simple...

Land of the free is getting more ridiculous every year. I listen old timers stories about 1950s practical jokes and it was like different country back then, they would be fired, prosecuted, "counseled" and medicated to death for doing what they did in 2017. Corporations, government and cumulatively damaged populace turned society into a sterile styrofoam where only an occasional murderous psycho disturbs phony, repressed, medicated and self adjusted asylum.

Well, that's a crazy think to do to your family as a joke, but what law did they break?

Abuse of a major condiment?
Is there really a law that says pictures sent to friends or family must fit into approved categories? If what they did is truly against the law - then we have far too many laws.

Some YouTubers have done this as a prank, and they haven't been charged. This family should have made sure 911 wasn't called.

What was once just a foolish and tasteless prank can now be elevated to a mountain out of a molehill due to the way social media can instill widespread hysteria.
