No worries, bro... It was my fault for making the "joke" in the first place.
I totally understand where you were coming from and why you reacted the way you did. There is a lot of senseless, messed up shit that goes on in this world... As I told Fidly on AIM, it was a sucky situation, but he was lucky. That guy could have easily had a gun and shot him and thought nothing of it. Scary.
Cheers.
