Can you believe this last statement from the Greek official:

"I feel that once he recovers and understands what he has done he should commit suicide." Panayotis Spatharakis, director of the Heraklion Hospital

So its true, the Greeks don't want no freaks!

Regardless of how we all may feel, I'm thinking that this was either a typo or a language barrier problem.
Maybe it should have said "could" instead of "should".

Copied from the article:"Panayotis Spatharakis, director of the Heraklion Hospital, told the Daily Mirror: "We asked him why he did it and he told us he was very drunk and could not exactly remember what happened."

Summing up the bitterness of locals, he told the paper: "I feel that once he recovers and understands what he has done he should commit suicide."

The Daily Mirror reported that Hogan's plight after the plunge brought little sympathy from angry locals who surrounded his stretcher to scream abuse. "

After reading this part, no, I don't believe it is a typo, and definitely not a language problem. These people are just PO'd that somebody would come to their island paradise and do something unthinkable in their eyes. We were in the Greek Islands in June, and they are very much about their children. I had people fawning over my little munchkins everywhere we went. Locals would pick up my girls and hug and play like they knew them forever. The girls loved it. It is just a different world from what we are used to. Anywhere else, I would have taken somebody out at the knees for touching my kids, but there, well, you can't exactly slug a Greek Granny for playing with your babes. I honestly think he meant every word he said. It is just unbelieveable how candid he was! And to be honest, what he did to his children, I could almost find myself saying the same thing as that official.
