    Holy crap, I hope they're okay...

    Yeah, I've heard Chicago is infested with crime. I give a big "no thanks" to ever going there.

    Crime rates have been going up lately but according to the several friends i have living there, it's primarily in Southern Chicago, which is where my friend who got shot is from. My other two friends are from other parts and it's rare for anything to happen where they live. One of them in particular rarely has any problems because the demographic is primarily like Germans and Swedes. My other friend is in an area where it's a bit more mixed, but again not much going on there. My friend who got shot is in an area that is largely low income so stuff happens.

    And yes, he is fine. Fractured pelvis but he got discharged yesterday and will be able to walk with a cane by the time college starts on the 22nd. He actually shielded his little cousin from the bullets so he's just glad his cousin was okay.

    That dude is a hero. Seriously. It takes some extremely tough, titanium balls to accept getting shot to save someone else's life.

    He may need to walk with a cane, but he'll walk stronger than any of us have.
