I've never had a gun pointed at me but my sister 10 years ago, while making a bank deposit for her office, was told to drop her money bag, not move, or she would die. The armed and masked guy picked up the money and ran to a waiting car. She was okay, but an emotional wreck for weeks. She fortunately got some counseling. It helped a lot, and says is no longer haunted by the incident anymore. She did say that getting through it made her more appreciative of life in general, and is doing great.

So I agree with Diehard that counseling will help. Your jumpy friend and maybe others may have Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and should consider being evaluated. In my job as an HR and Risk Management consultant, I've often spoken to victims of shootings. In many cases, the body heals long before the mind does, if at all. So thank God you're okay. I wouldn't go back to the scene until I felt it was safe and I was mentally ready. I'd tell them to screw themselves if they thought we shoudln't talk about it. The bowling alley is probably trying to keep bad press down to a minimum or people might stop coming in to bowl. Ignoring what happened and making no changes could mean it could happen again..

And BigB00882, I don't know the dynamanic of this incident. But squealing or revealing the name of the shooter could cause infinite death threats against the squealer and his loved ones. Sometimes as has happened in LA, one person has the guts to do the right thing, squeal, put several people in prison, and get their neighborhoods back.
