What would you do?

[bighead384]

Say your good friend does something fucked up, and then somebody starts getting in his/her face about it. How do you react to that? What would you say is the right thing to do?

[JohnnyNemesis]

Step aside. Defend your friend to a reasonable point, but if his/her actions are indefensible, don't comprise your sensibilities for him/her. That's my stance.

[Tijs]

It all depends on what it is that he/she did and how he/she was responsible for that and how he/she could've prevented it from happening. And also if he/she did something similar in the past. It also depends on who that 'somebody' is who's getting in his/her face about it. And of course how you are involved.

So it depends on a lot of things.

[nameless]

it would depend on what happened. some people might be easily offeded while others would take it on the chin!

[Desperado]

Don't get involved, let them argue it out on their own.

[calichix]

it's none of your beeswax unless things get physical (physical).


what would you do if your son was at home crying all alone on the bedroom floor cause he's hungry and the only way to feed him was to sleep with a man for a little bit of money and his daddy's gone somewhere smokin rock now in and out of lock down?

[randman21]

Yeah, if it's really fucked up, the friend probably deserved it. But keep it from escalating.

Surround yourself with people who aren't stupid so this never becomes an issue.

Haha, that's probably the best advice. But it seems like most people feel the same way I do: If someone does something so fucked up that it causes me to wonder whether I have any place getting involved, then they probably deserve whatever's coming to them. But of course, they're still my friend, so if it gets really ugly I would still do SOMETHING, depending on the situation.
