You know, some people, you just never know.
What can I tell you?
Have you been hanging out at Union Station here for a while?
I've been coming here all in all for about 10 years, yeah.
And have you seen any crazy stuff over here?
Nah, people seem to get along pretty good, you know.
You know, if you mind your business, it seems like, you seem like you're easy going.
People much don't pay you much attention.
You know, that's America.
You know, if you seem like you at least got a good, you know, you got, you know you good stepping, people ain't gonna much get all shook up over you.
And people walk around here just looking like they looking for, just ain't no damn good.
Those are the ones you gotta look out for.
Some people just look like they ain't no damn good.
I mean, they'll jump at you cause you looked at them the wrong way.
You done something wrong, but that's all I can say about that.
So do people treat you all right out here or what?
Well, I'm a very tall person.
Ain't nobody gonna get on me cause I'll be ready to roll up my sleeves, you know.
So, you know, that's how that goes.
You know how to handle yourself?
You better.
I grew up knowing how to handle myself.
If I go down dying, I, at least I put up a fight.
I ain't gonna let no person just take me for a pushover.
You know, if you let a person take you for a pushover, what can you say?
Have you gotten in many altercations while you've been out here?
I've gotten a few.
Some people, but you know, other than that, you know, people don't buy much profit me.
But you know, I've had altercations.
Some people just look for a reason to, you know, to serve a whole lot of shit.
But on the large hole, people are usually going.
Do you have any stories of anything like that?
Anything crazy happening while you've been out here?
Stuff like that you want to put in the back of your mind.
You don't want to put it in, you don't want to go around thinking about it.
You know, how are you just, you know, I'm the kind of person, you know, I like things to come up, you know, come up good, you know.
And I'm not going to go around here just screaming and hollering about negative situations that have occurred.
Because more than, I just, because you know, that's the way I'm used to living.
I like easy going, good people, God fearing people.
I'm a God fearing person.
And that's how that goes.
I'm a God fearing person.
