it wasn't dumb at all. look at the pictures of the signage at the time. it was genuinely confusing.
I don't think it was in the article, can you link me?
I actually just saw a picture of it... It's literally the standard fire alarm used country-wide in public buildings (you know, a red plastic square that says fire, with an awkward to pull handle) next to a normal double door with push bars leading outside. Why would he be rushing outside so conveniently anyways?
I think he took one for the team, and I respect it. No one was hurt, and in the context of the situation I think his actions were morally valid
Of course he claimed it was an accident... It would be idiotic not to. I know it wasn't, he knows it wasn't, anyone who looks at the door knows it wasn't. The only way to prove it was intentional is for him to admit that... Which could turn a small fine into a whole pubic spectacle
Spreading the white lie is inaccurate and harms discourse, unlike his dubious excuse...This is a "read between the lines" sort of situation
The signage posted was literally a “dead dont inside open” situation. I wasnt referring to the actual alarm mechanism.
IDK wtf that could possibly mean... it's literally a normal door with a fire alarm next to it. The only words involved are "fire" on the tiny plastic alarm that is standard everywhere I've ever seen, and exit (which I didn't see, but I presume was on the ceiling behind the camera, as this is a nationwide building standard)
Do you have a picture of this confusing signage? I'd love to see it, because the one I saw paints a pretty clear picture (in which again, I support his actions, including the white lie...I just don't support spreading a lie in a misguided attempt at solidarity)
