Somali Pirates In The Bronx Return BBUD

I am not sure which is more abhorrent. The fact that my ride was stolen or that I paid a ransom to get it back. After BBUD was stolen I posted on Craigslist that a reward would be offered for its return. Don't you know my cell phone rang and I was informed that BBUD had "been turned in" to a young person in the Bronx who paid money for it. This young person, being a responsible citizen, called me to let me know I could get it back for what they paid for it.
Ransom, terrorism, theft, thugdom. The label is irrelevant.
I paid the fee. I felt awful on so many levels. What would you have done?
