Morons have the best and most affordable legal representation there is. "It's somebody else's fault. Always."
I'm sure he could sue, but you can bet the developers have their own covey of lawyers that could bury this with years of legal wrangling.

That's what people thought when idiots put their little kids inside the fences with the buffalo.

The developers moved the buffalo out of sight, so innocent kids and big morons didn't get wounded due to their own stupidity.

Hi justjim: I agree but don't forget, not too long ago, the poor guy whose only act was to attempt to strike his ball where it lay next to the water when a gator jumped out and grabbed his arm.

As to this guy. Just think the alligator had to tolerate him for just a short time. Imagine the poor wife that has to live with him 24/7

One the guys who mows the grass along the retention pond I live on was tossing chunks of a bagel to an alligator. I told him to stop and pointed out that feeding an alligator is illegal and is potentially a death sentence for the alligator if he loses his fear of humans. He seemed surprised by this. I called my CDD and asked them to please educate their vendors.

Large man in red tee shirt, two sizes too small, and walking with a macho swagger. Seemed he thought it was funny as he laughed to those with him, who were still behind the fence.
He was gone when the Deputy arrived.

It is also a violation of the Florida wildlife statute I cited above

What's even more scarier is is the guy got out of the house wearing a shirt two sizes too small. In red

Drunk too maybe? Too many drinks at the 19th hole?

I threw a rock at an alligator and it was so funny because he tried to throw it back and with those little arms he couldn't reach me. Next time I'll send of a Frisbee. I'll bet he could swing it back and let it go with his mouth. And it's not a bad idea to let the alligators know we're people too. And we know how to have a good time too.

This guy is definitely a moron. I'd love to throw a big sharp rock at anyone that harasses an animal.
But I'd probably miss.
