Man loses vision after being punched in eye at bar

Sioux City Police Sgt. Tony Sunclades said Scott Bennett, 48, of Lawton was assaulted early Sunday morning at Mavericks, a men's night club at 416 Cunningham Drive, Sioux City.

Bennett was taken to a local hospital for treatment, but Sunclades said Bennett's injuries were severe enough that he lost his eye.

Sunday's assault left Bennett without any vision. Sunclades said the man lost his other eye in an assault three months earlier at the same business.

This is awful.  I should not be laughing.  :rotf:

Why would a man want to go to a man's club. Hmmmmmmm. The dude is a slow learner.

This is such fertile ground for jokes...

"Blind me once, shame on you.  Blind me twice, shame on me."

"Son, I told you if you go looking at nekkid wimmen, you'll go blind."

"That's not what the Bible means when it says, 'An eye for an eye'."

"It's all fun and games until someone loses an eye... or two."

Those who see their lives as spoiled and wasted crave equality and fraternity more than they do freedom. If they clamor for freedom, it is but freedom to establish equality and uniformity. The passion for equality is partly a passion for anonymity: to be one thread of the many which make up a tunic; one thread not distinguishable from the others. No one can then point us out, measure us against others and expose our inferiority.
-Eric Hoffer, "The True Believer", 1951
