When the local chapter of the Canadian Hummer Club was interviewed by CBC last week, the topic of anti-Hummer sentiment was discussed for a long time. We tried to explain why we thought that some people behaved this way. (The people interviewing us offered their suggestions too, we were all discussing together.) It is really hard to explain why, and that is when the person in question is a normally upstanding individual. People like that might either be jealous or have preconveived notions of the Hummer that are skewed or incorrect. Someone like the person that approached you does not sound like he is one of these people. I agree with the others that it is worthy of having the police investigate, because the whole incident just sounds like someone who has several other issues that are waiting to explode.

I am sorry that you had to experience that. I do not know what I would have done in your situation. I am not very confrontational at all, and probably would not have known what to say or do. Until you mentioned that you called 911, the thought never crossed my mind. I tend to lock up in situations like that.

Hopefully he does not frequent the area now. Are there other parking spaces on campus for you?
