Thanks, feels like **** to be honest. When I was younger I lived down the street from a man that wrestled a man with a gun , well Collin Furgesoun if that rings any bells? Guy just open fired in to a crowded train on Long Island in the 90's anyway the one of the men the stopped him from killing a **** load more people then he did lived two doors down from me and I watched him hide from media scrutiny grow a beard the whole nine man like jumping out a back window to get to work, I watched that split second decision he made tear apart his life.
And you know something the feeling for me is this, at some point I guess I feel like if you know a person really and truly you know they need an intervention from themselves, (cause the day before I tried to have him committed but it didn't work) if you know someone is that psycho, when do you step in to protect them from themselves. With junkies there is a certain amount on shinanaginz that goes on, and you can tell when it's just selfish antics, up to and including theft, passing out in public places, and the boring run of the mill horse**** sob story written by Mr. ****ing Crybaby. But this was like legitimately different so much so the day this happened I knew deep down he was gonna die, I knew it when I woke up. I kept him with me all day because of that feeling. So when **** goes from boring junk bag drama, to scary as hell is it really appropriate to be like "eh yer on yer own!"?
