Dumb Ass! Couldn't believe when I saw that on the news.
I know I should be more compassionate,..........but having a hard time with that.
Guess no one told him that he was not immortal.

To be fair, the sign said "No Swimming Alligators", which says to me the water contains no gators.

Says to me that the water contains gators, just not ones that can swim.

See? Getting in the water would be safer than staying on land.
So,...how would you handle this one?

Stop on the STOP.
Keep moving after AHEAD.

I'd stop at the stop sign ahead. DUH :P The one at the intersection. Please tell me you're kidding.

So, what are gators doing in the water if they can't swim? And since all known gators can swim the biologist in me has to ask if this is a new species of gators. Note also that this took place in Texas, which makes to whole event, not a surprise. Several of my TX neighbors are capable of actions requiring similar intellect.
Reptile illiteracy is a big problem. The sign clearly states the alligators are prohibited from swimming in that area, but they cannot read it.
Are we now to punish the alligators for our failure to teach them to read?
You cannot fix it. :D

Absolutely, but the frequent collateral damage is the distressing part.
