Howdy Rvb,

The whole thing seems to be a contradiction. John mentions that his father was blinded, which was allegedly happened in a bar fight south of Chicago, meaning that John knew him and interacted with him after said bar fight. However, on another occasion, he states that he doesn’t know how his father died, adding that he was informed that it was in the bar fight, which wouldn’t make sense as John says that he knew him afterwards.

The evidence for John’s father's alleged death in the bar fight can be seen here at 2:50 (provided by User:Equivalent-Ambition).

I’m not sure what to make of it all. One solution would be to word it neutrally and then have a reference explaining this discrepancy. Aside from that, it’s just speculation. Was John informed incorrectly? Did John hear about him being blinded before dying at some point afterwards? Neither of these make much sense. I would be interested in hearing your opinion on this.

Please let me know!
