as i said, it is always easy to come up with better solutions if you have time to think about it and use words like "probably"

 but i can only go by what is see. the kids obviously didn't stay inside the school and the squirrel was actually attacking him, and there was no time to think or go look for a bucket or gloves.

i am not even denying that there were possible other, better solutions, but i can't see him acting stupid in this given situation.

Oh come on, it was a baby squirell, not some crazy fat kid with a gun. You could barely see the little guy. It wasn't one of those react or die situations. The guy just did the stupidest thing possible.

go find bucket/gloves/gardener/cage while kid gets bitten and dies of rabies = irresponsible

shoot it= more stupid

kick it = more stupid

otherwise i refer you to the answer i gave galaki



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

- George Orwell, ‘1984’
