He survived!!! He is Alive!!!
Which certainly, limits any potential reprecussions, brought the perpetrators of this alleged bloody assault
Reminds me of a song...
Could have been me
I was riding my bike in LG and a car almost sideswiped me. I gave them the bird and then worried they would come back and hurt or kill me. I have always thought of my town as a safe place but have seen more signs of crime lately. And the cop helicopter is nearby all night long.
