I would never advocate for threatening another person's life - I am a freaking hospice nurse, but that is EXACTLY what he did. He chose to go and drink while underage, act like a freaking moron and a drain on society and THREATEN THE LIVES OF OTHERS. I have three kids, ranging from 10-16 and ALL of them "get it". They did not ask (nor would I have ALLOWED them to go!) to go to the beach to party with friends. when this was filmed, it was VERY clear how bad this disease was, how quickly it was spreading, and that this irresponsible behavior would endanger the lives of others. He simply did not care. nor did his parents who clearly FUNDED this behavior. Frankly they ALL should have to deal with permanent life changes due to these choices. He did NOT make them alone, and he did NOT make only ONE bad choice. He made MANY including breaking the law for drinking (or hell, likely drugging) at his age. Shame on him, his parents and every other waste of space that did the same.My son goes to school with this kid, and while they aren't friends, he "knows of" him. Remember that there was no "shelter in place" at the time, actual cases were in the single digits, and the common rhetoric on the news was that young people didn't get the virus. Not an excuse, but a reminder of where we were at that time.
The kid was stupid. He said dumb things that kids say when they are with friends and tipsy. Since then he has gotten death threats and all kinds of horrible statements on social media as well as in real life.
While I agree it was dumb, I certainly don't think t rises to the level of having your life threatened. The kid made a mistake. He has apologized and is sincere.
Remember that we've all done dumb things - most of us were lucky enough to not have our worst moments recorded and played for the world.
