Should’ve let them spent the night on the ice flow idiots!!
And you should start fining the resorts that are allowing these people on the ice !
122 idiots at $1000 each just might put a damper on this problem.
When will people learn…. Oh never !!!!
They should just leave them out there and deal with it in the morning
Job well done to the responders involved, true shepards of humanity.
Any identification on the drowning off Angle Inlet MN?
Stupidity at its finest! Wait till we get a little cold weather and ya get some safer ice people. Your going to get some first responders killed with your asinine antics!
All for fish none of them had to pay rescuse puting all rescuser at risk. They need to be all fine the max and pay for rescuse or they will keep do this
Great reporting Neil. Thanks for the update.
Some real dumb people!! How nice of them to put the first responders in danger there’s been how many rescues and they still do it put them in jail and if any of the responders get hurt charge them with it!!!
I see dumb people everywhere and some of them don't even know their dumb but to see so many at one time is very concerning.
hope others learned from these fools errors
They should be fined minimum 1000$ then have their fishing license taken away for 10 years for pure stupidity and endangering first responders
They need to revoke the fishing licenses of ALL THESE DING DONGS. THEY NEED TO CHARGE THEM EACH $1,000.00 and if anyone brought children out onto the ice they should be charged with child endangerment.
Our tax money at work! Heaven forbid the powers that be shut down the lake…meh what’s a human life or 10…
More Citidiots!
When will this madness end??
Let Darwinism run its course at this point.
The walleyes are biting, so it's worth it.
Tourist=the same folks that gave us Omar
It would be so nice if people would just use some common sense. Putting rescuers in this position time after time is just mean. Why should they have to give up their free time, risk their lives and rescue people who should know better than to risk all that? Thank you to our brave volunteers who give up their time, safety and lives to keep us safe.
Resorts need to shut down. People need to stop being sheep and learn about ice safety first and foremost before ice fishing 👀🤦♀️Glad everyone is safe. Sheesh! Commen sense is lacking all over 😅 NO fish is worth lives folks!
Walleye!
Can we just start letting natural selection take place again
HI Neil hey hi😁
Great job by responders- WHAT A BUNCH OF IDIOTS! Which resort is allowing them on the water after so many incidents in last week? That makes about 150 rescued in the last week on Red Lake alone! Truly idiots, everyone of them.
Well, thank you to all who rescued them!! And thank you Lord!!
OMG it has to be global stupidity.
I was out there , we were so drunk we had no idea who that guy was in that canoe. Buddy caught a 20" .
