Good story. And you lived to tell us about it, Dang!
I'm actually paying for protection for my son right now. He's in for malicious wounding because, after 4 years, he found the dude that stabbed him in what was supposed to be an unarmed fight. He stabbed my son right through the heart and he was DOA at the hospital. It if wasn't for a keen doctor at MCV ER (Medical College of Virginia ER- my son lives in Virginia) that did a clam shell incision on my son's chest and pumped his heart til he got it back pumping (my son was only 17) my son wouldn't be here. My son was in ICU for 4 months and we nearly lost him 4 times. Because my son didn't die and he was a gang banger with the crips at the time, they gave the other dude his freedom as "self defense" I'm like HUH? My son didn't have a weapon, the other dude did. Anyway, my son nearly killed him (again) 4 years later and is doing 6 for the malicious wounding. He's lucky because my son shot him but he lived. My son is lucky he's not sitting on death row! My son doesn't want to be in gangs anymore and he wants to stay straight because his wife has my two beautiful grand children. He comes home (or Virginia) the end of this year). So I pay for him to pay people to leave him alone and he gets to spend the limit at commissary so he shares and they don't fxxk with him- He's all scarred up like frankenstein on his chest and back from all the surgeries so he couldn't take many fights anyway.
That's my prison story.
P.S. I forgot to add, the original fight? It was over a girl.
