The guy in the story was missing leather pants and boots, which probably would have saved his leg, but tell me, when was the last time you have ever seen anyone ride in full leathers around Virginia Beach?
I must have said it wrong. What I ment was, if someone goes out with just shorts, shoes, shirt and lid then falls, don't bitch and cry because they got all torn up.

If someone goes out with all the right gear, and it still happens then I feel bad for those type of people.

I hate when you guys act like that. No one deserves that shit.
So it would have been better if he took someone else's leg?
