- Just run across the ocean in a mobius strip and the arrest the world for stowing away. Check mate.
The guy obviously want to die at sea.
I say next time he tries, the CG lets him.
- Don't we have enough pollution in the ocean as it is?
  
  Yea, but he's tried multiple times. Which pollutes more? A lifetime of failure, or one death?
- Which part
  
  Yes
that is a special kind of stupid.
they should have had him sign a waiver saying the coast guard didn’t need to watch out for him, and then send him on his way, godspeed.
trust me, the human gene pool could desperately use it.
- He sounds mentally ill from the sounds of it. I'm sure he'll get the support he needs now cough
  
  I know you're being facetious but Florida's mental healthcare system is abhorrently managed and funded. If it's not the worst in the US we're easily top 5. Especially for Baker Acts (involuntary admission to a psych facility), which he is. If you so much as blink at a cop or mention you're depressed in the wrong way to a doctor you get locked up for 72 hours. It's often traumatic, rarely does anything to help people in distress and leaves you thousands of dollars in the hole at the end of it.
- Might want to find out how strong the genetic component even is, first. You've seen dumb kids from smart parents and vice versa, right?
  
  The way people casually espouse eugenics is disturbing. I blame Idiocracy.
