I forgot he was there with his church and family. You bring up a good point. I went to Busch Gardens with my church when I was 18 and a senior in high school but they considered me one of the youth and made me stay with a chaperoned group the whole time. I wonder where everyone else was when the 2 of them decided to jump the fence?

It didn't even occur to me to wonder what color he is. Lacking common sense crosses all race lines in my experience.

We're probably all better off now that this person was taken OUT of the gene pool.

The theme park should sue his family for damages.
