awww i'm so sorry.
Yes there are some fucked up people in the world.

But don't put the blame on yourself!! or your parents!! It's not your fault nor theirs.

bad stuff happens to good people, unfortunately.

It's no good to beat yourself up over it, the best you can do is offer your help and support for your friend.
I'm sure he'll appreciate that.

Ah that sucks to hear

g0th_gurl is right dont blame your self or parents, just help your friend through this time!

also they didn't know this would happen before they went to mc donalds so dont beat your self up about it.. just let your friend know your there for him if he needs you, do what you can

I know, you could get a genetically alterd spider to bite you, and then chase after the bastard in a spider suit!

ok im' sorry i shuoldn't joke about this..

[Guile]

Damn that sucks...hope everything turns out good...

Who's to say? If you were there, you might be the one facing the possibility of going blind. Anger is a common response to something like this, but it's probably better to just support your friend at the moment.

Phalanx is right, you could of been the one attacked. Sucks to hear about shit like that, my sister's friends friend (yea, lol) got hit by this annoying fucker from his school, he was on his bike and the other guy in a pickup, and went 45 down a 25, turned a corner and sent the friend flying, sadly he died shortly after.

Well, I had posted a REALLY long and detailed post here right after Steve, but I got kicked offline while it was being submitted, so I thought I'd come back after a little bit to repost generally what I had said.


Don't blame your parents, because they could'nt have known just like you could'nt have. No one would suspect someone being mugged right outside their own house.

And its best neither you nor his son were there, generally, muggers conceal a weapon incase they get in a tight situation. He saw only one man, so he did not need a weapon to keep his advantage, so he just beat him up. If there were more there, someone could easily be dead now.

He has a 40% chance of losing sight in one eye, be thankful that his eye wasn't busted that moment, he has a 60% chance, which is much better than the other way around of only a 40% chance, or even less.

I'll take the loss of sight in my own eye, over the sight of both my eyes. Hell, I'd rather be dead than be blind, it would be too much to lose for me :

Be glad for what HAS happened, and thankful for what has not. Yes, my friend?

[Balthor]

thanks for the support guys everything is almost back to normal,i have good news,my friends dads right eye was evaluated by the docs and he said he'll make a full recovery yeah i was just real angry after that :/ but me and my friend are hanging out more trying not to remember what happned,again thanks for cheering me up guys oh and grendal,making jokes is what mkes me happier in these situations so no worries

[Daikarin]

That's the spirit
