Answer:
but first let me preface this by stating that i am, by no means, a big guy. 5′10. 140 on average. sure, i know how to handle myself in a combative situation, but at first glance, people would see me as a non-threat, as far as physicality is concerned.
about 2 years ago, i was driving to drop a college classmate off at home when he asked me to stop at a nearby gas station so he could grab a coffee. upon arriving, i had to stop due to a large gathering of people who had crowded around the parking lot and were actively watching something take place, which at the time i couldn't see; but people had their smartphones out so i was sure it was something interesting.
i beeped a couple times and a number of individuals cleared the way for me to enter the parking lot. upon doing so, i noticed what the people were gawking at.
