I would say you should mention he’s from Florida, but on rereading the title, it’s well enough implied.
Stop wasting tax dollars stopping this man doing what he wants.
The issue was that he threatened to detonate a bomb if the coast guard got close. He also said he had knives and would kill himself.
The reason this escalated is they were harassing him. They detained him for days, looking for a problem that wasn’t there.
let me get this straight… if a millionaire builds a million dollar , untested experimental craft and goes and plays in the ocean, hes fine.
if some poor schlup scrapes together a bunch of crap into an experimental craft and foes and plays in the ocean, hes stopped, investigated, and arrested when he refuses to comply.
why the disparity in treatment? oh right, money. people with money can do whateverthefucktheywant
Isn’t this like the third time he’s tried?
Literally in the article, but yes he tried a couple of times already.
I remember people trying dumb shit like this in the 80’s or 90’s.
