Does the incident involve one or more well-known people?
Is the incident unusual enough to be of interest even if the participants are unknown to the public?
Did the bouncer bring these people together in the romantic sense?
- No, no one is famous in this.
- I think so, yes.
- No, not romantic.
Were his duties as a bouncer a necessary part of why this event happened, or was his being a bouncer just a coincidence?
Was the kicking people out part of the job important? The letting people in or not part? Something else?
Was this a case of “Never mind, I’ll start my own party!”?
Was discrimination involved?
I’m not sure I know what you mean, so feel free to rephrase and ask again. My answer for now is:
Just a coincidence. His “bouncer” job was not the purpose of the event.
When these people were brought together, did it result in
…an artistic or entertainment collaboration?
…a business deal?
…political activity?
- No to artistic/entertainment
- No to a business deal
- Yes, it actually kind of did lead to a political activity.
Was his presence what helped bring people together?
Or specifically his absence at a particular event? (e.g. was he supposed to be in the bar, but wasn’t)
I’d say “no” to both.
Were police involved?
Nope.
When you say “brought people together,” do you mean socially? I figure that’s the normal meaning, but he could also bring people together by, say, physically knocking their heads together.
More broadly, is it an accurate rephrasing of the scenario to say, “A guard at a fun social gathering once brought people into a closer social arrangement, but did not mean to do so in the way that they did”?
My meaning was:
Could someone who wasn’t a bouncer just as easily accomplished the same thing?
Did being a bouncer give him advantages or authority to accomplish this that someone else who wasn’t a bouncer would have had more difficulty pulling off?
Yes, he brought people together socially, but perhaps not how you think “socially” means. But yes, socially.
Yes, I think that more or less works.
-
Possibly. I guess so, but this is how it was.
-
Sure, I’d say “yes”, but more accurately I can’t answer this one. I think it might assume too much to the point where “yes/no” doesn’t work.
Perhaps take a few steps back from the image/story and try asking some basic questions? Just a thought.
Were people brought together in the sense that a widespread awareness of, or support for, some sort of cause was sparked?
Yes, this is much better and closer to the correct understanding.
How many people were brought together? Was it more than 2? more than 10? more than 100?
More than 100.
