While I am not crazy about what he did, I don't believe it to be the crime everyone is making it out to be.
Skimming is illegal, therefore, it's a crime. That took less than one bloody second to figure out. And a big, fat ditto to Skip. Every second emergency responders have to spend on a Darwin Award Winner is time they aren't able to spend responding to real emergencies. Kids being kids, we all did stupid stuff, blah blah blah. Stretching emergency resources thin due to stupidity is serious business. A heart attack victim versus our summer skimmer? Let the dumb kid sink.
