Default Wynonna Judd's husband, bad accident

I saw this today and couldnt help but feel conflicted. As a motorcycle rider and drummer, i can't imagine losing a leg and my heart goes out to him. However, he was cited for riding on the wrong side of the road and not having a motorcycle license. I always feel bad for anyone in an accident but if someone is clearly negligent I can't help but feel they need to take responsibiltiy for their bad decisions..

Well, if Rick Allen can keep on drumming after losing a limb, ol' Cactus can do it, too...

Feel bad for him, but mixed feelings when they're riding illegally.

I'm also a drummer and man ... i feel for him but what an idiot. It was to be expected if he didn't have a license or any sense on how to ride correctly.

Exactly what the fk do you want him to do? The dude was in an accident and got hurt. A lic. doesnt mean a whole lot anyway. Plenty people got em and they cant drive worth sht. The dude lost a leg....Evidently nobody else got hurt...??? Its not like he killed a nun and 3 kids going to feed the homeless on purpose or anything. He fk'ed up, crashed out and now he loses a leg. It sucks. Nothing wrong with feeling sorry for him...wont help any but nothing is wrong with it.

I just hope he recovers no matter what the situation is.
