122. YES, be American and don't be too quick to judge.Only our founding Father has that right. We Americans have to stop hating and start helping each other. It may not last forever,this freedom and etc,if we do not try to unite the UNITED STATES again. It may all go away. Yes, the people on this comment site would bond and become great friends with Hulk and his family, if they were stranded and were the only American people around them. Boy, that would be a wonderful lesson to these people. Time will come when all your hateful words or actions may haunt ya. AMERICA, wave the flag everyday! Not only during terrible times..Guess what, AMERICA IT IS STILL THAT TIME! You are in your comfortable home or office right now, right? Yep, and why ,due to our AMERICAN SOLDIERS of the past and PRESENT. Regardless if your Dem/Reb. we are ALL AMERICANS, ONE NATION, UNDER GOD, INDIVISIBLE , WITH LIBERTY and JUSTICE for ALL! Do not be so hateful or quick to judge, after all we are all each others keeper in the END! Folks,Nick is young and he felt invincible, fearless and never thought of hurting someone.Remember the feeling of YOUTH people..I do,I am 31 and I remember. I have read John has been in Nicks family for awhile..and I think its wonderful that Johns Mom is able to love the Hulksters through all this and tell the media whats up! You just don't love only your birthright family..we all are somehow connected through our American heritage history. The people on here who have said hateful things SHAME ON YOU! You feed the hate and try to make haters and its just NOT AMERICAN in ANY WAY! Think about it! I hope John pulls through and that the friendship continually stays strong between the two families.There are enough WARS that are CAUSED ON PURPOSE.

123. Actually, they showed a different episode than they said they would. They were supposed to show Nick learning about the "birds and the bees." Get your facts straight.

124. It is interesting as a former domestic violence receiver and a nurse. People have no clue what this is even about. It can be man or woman, but these comments seem to make me think that most of your comments come from illiterates. I would think the people defending this man have done their share of smacking people around, maybe their children.
They did not just remove this man for appearing in the waiting room. He was no doubt causing a disturbance where it should never happen. Staff understands a person's grief in such situations and handles family crisis well. Grow up, people. Don't make comments when you haven't been there and walked in their shoes. Nick needs to wake up now or it will be way too late one day.

125. Nick Bollea (himself) posted a blog in the Miami Herald stating that "HE WAS NOT SPEEDING. HE WAS CHASING THE PEOPLE WHO STOLE THE HOGANS JEWELRY IN MIAMI BEACH."

Yet ANOTHER excuse from a kid who can't keep his mouth SHUT. His lawyer has his work cut out for him. Hulk Hogan says he was meeting Nick and his friends for DINNER. I guess the "people who stole the Hogans jewelry" had their faces planted on that PALM TREE Nick airborned into at warp speed.

126. You can't act like this in an ICU ward. He is not the only patient in that ward. If all the patient's families acted like that, the nurses and other health care professionals would have to take time away from the bedside to deal with domestic issues. That is not fair to the staff or to the quality of care the patients are receiving. People need to remember that this is about the patient and not themselves. What he did was selfish, sometimes there is a time to be selfless. Sounds like he is used to being the center of attention, whether negative or positive. It's time to focus on his son and doing what is best for him, not himself. Some fates are worse than death.

127. I am sick to my stomach after reading several comments here. First, Nick I am sure feels horrible about what happened. He is a teenager who feels invincible. Second, anyone here who says domestic violence is OK has never been in that situation or is an abuser themselves. No one has the right to hit you, throw things at you, kick you, etc., for whatever reason. The man is an abuser period! He is where he belongs. If he cared so much for his family, he wouldn't have a restraining order on him. Third, it was an accident people. As horrible and awful this is, accidents do happen. I don't think Nick got up that day and said, "Gee, I think I'll crash my car into a tree today." I pray for the families. I hope Graziano recovers. That's where my energies are being focused. That's where yours should be too.

128. You don't come into the hospital acting like an idiot, starting a brawl, and then expect nothing is going to happen. I work on an ICU, and I certainly don't want people on my unit involved in physical fights. It's not the local bar, people. Everyone else has to be protected, too- other patients and family members, and staff. If he's going to attack one son for 'not fixing his computer,' what could he have done to the one laying in the hospital bed? I'm glad he got arrested- serves him right. People have been acting like violent nuts in our hospitals for too long, and getting a slap on the wrist. Try working in one. He does not have the right to act like that in a hospital, plain and simple. I applaud the wife for taking a stand against this wife beater. Good for her!

129. It appears the reason he was arrested was because he was getting violent with other family members in the hospital, not because there was an injunction against him. Yes his wife renewed the injunction but that was because he was arguing with his family. I personally don't blame her. You don't need the stress of someone attacking your family on top of having a loved one in the hospital. He needs to be where he is, either that or straighten up and be a support instead of a burden.

130. The situation is obviously more complex to judge it easily. I don't think the Hogan's need to be sued. That so typical of everyone to jump to law-sues, when ultimately it , first, wouldn't improve John's health,second, though it's their son, they're not guilty of every crime of faul he's guilty of. However, the kid (Nick), must face the consequences, and certantly not in the way it's typically done to celebreties, but as it is for everyone who would face such situation. It's a shame about the parents, they both need to shut the f.... up, DRINK THEIR COFFEE, and pray for their son. Dealing with legal issues should be post-poned until John recovers, what everyone else is also hoping and praying for.

131. I think everyone needs to remember that nick hogan is a teenager that has been responsible for an accident that hurt a close friend of his, and money can not ease that pain or close that wound. Nick lives in the spotlight alot because of his dad. Nick eats up the attention like any normally teenager, but when he a mistake or poor judgement as all teenagers do he is treated like a diease in the press and by the rest of america, Mainly because he had priviliges, money and more oppourunties because of whom his parents are, and i think america wants to hate and blame someone but the truth is that he and his family could haven been the average working class family and this still would have happened, if you do not believe me then turn on the news or surf the web and hear similar stories buried on the back pages of newspapers or just one line mentioned on a news cast because their families do not have fame, fortune,and the public invading their privacy. regardless of what happens next in regard of this accident it assured that nick, his family, and his friend and their family will not get america's public interest to respect their right to heal and learn life's hard lessons with out everyboby watching for their pain and joy to show. god bless the hogans, the injuried friend of nicks and his family may the healing start as soon as possible.

132. The father is a typical abuser. He's a bully to his family and it started way before his son's accident. Why is it his wife's fault? Doesn't she also have a son in critical condition? Yet, she hasn't turned into a raving lunatic. Not only does she have the stress of a child in intensive care, she has had to deal with legal issues in order to protect herself (and her family) from a total nut-job. I'm willing to bet she would've much rather been at the hospital holding her son's hand than taking time away from her bedside vigil to get a restraining order if there wasn't a legitimate reason. By the way, what possible good can come from having an out of control, raging idiot spend time with a seriously ill patient? Does anybody think he could "act nice" during his visit so his son would only have a positive environment to recover in? Healing is supposed to be sped up by calm words of comfort, love, and encouragement, not by words somebody spits out through anger, rage and clenched teeth. I truly don't care what "Daddy Dearest" needs or wants. The only thing that should matter to anybody is what is best for that poor son. I will pray for a speedy recovery for him,a speedy divorce for his mother, and for his dad,a very large cell mate that calls him "Honey!"
