How stupid can people be! There was a tropical storm out in the Atlantic, red flags were flying at every life guard stand. Rip Current warnings had been issued all weekend long! Waves were bigger than normal. What else do people need a stamp across your forehead? I watched as lifeguards pulled people out left and right. Rip currents are not something to mess with you. You can be a big strong swimmer all you want but it doesn't matter. Rip currents will pull you out and under quicker than you know.
I give all the life guards credit for having to deal with stupid people like this. Yes I know your at the beach and want to have fun but common sense and safety comes first.
If your coming to the beach, have your common sense with you, safety is first you want to be able to go home saying you had a great time at the beach.
