I wondered how long before this kind of idiocy happened. The good news is that it took marginally longer than I expected.

'Angel' hovers over Aurora movie theater where 12 were slain

I had to stare intently for several minutes before I say anything in that cloud besides a cloud, and when I did it looked more like Gandalf telling the Balrog "YOU SHALL NOT PASS!" than an angel to me.
