I'm just shaking my head at his immaturity. He didn't
have the intent to hurt anyone, he was just showing off, not knowing it
was a really bad idea.

I know it's an old post, but I disagree and I'm glad they threw the book at
that weenie. He tried to blame it on his kid, he'd seen the stories about
concerns for safety, and he did konw it was a bad idea but he still did it,
deliberately. Numerous copycats since have started doing the same thing.

Sure, it's a prank for most, just like dropping rocks off the bridge over the
freeway. But it's stupid, and malicious, and there's no useful or positive
purpose for doing it. A woman died last year in Council Bluffs when teens were
dropping landscaping bricks off a bridge and one went through the window of a
van driving by underneath and caught her in the head. They didn't intend to
hurt anyone either.
