In short, they made a lapse in judgement, I expressed mild displeasure to the other member who caused this, this same member decided to draw a [thing that goes boom in a semi-automatic fashion], point it at me, make explicit [harsh statements] regarding his intent to [cause a sudden termination of my inhabitance of this plane of existence], leading to that same member's booking by police, and it was my membership, not his, that was terminated.
To explain fully, I was a longtime member of this place and always enjoyed it. One day I showed up early for a 10:30 appointment for red light therapy, but was told someone was still using it. Of course, that was no problem at all. At around 10:40 I politely inquired about whether the other member showed up late or if things had fallen behind in general, and I was told the former.
At 10:46, the other member finally left, but considering my own schedule, I realized that I wouldn't have enough time to complete my session, and said I'd reschedule for later in the week.
I saw the other member parked near me, who had just gotten into his car. I approached within maybe 8' of his driver door (he was backed-in), and plainly and calmly asked why he thought showing up 20 minutes late, to a 30-minute appointment was a polite thing to do.
His response? Pulling out a [thing that goes boom in a semi-automatic fashion], pointing it at me, and making explicit [harsh statements] regarding his intent to [cause a sudden termination of my inhabitance of this plane of existence] if I didn't leave.
I backed up even farther and filmed him driving away. To be clear, I never blocked his exit or did anything that would justify this behavior. I called 911, which led to him being booked and charged.
The next day, I was notified that my membership was being terminated due to my behavior, in the most disingenuous, HR-style manner possible. I was told that "this is a peaceful place and your behavior doesn't align with our values."
The perpetrator of felonious conduct against me did not have his membership revoked, as I continued to see his vehicle (a unique one) parked in the same manner, regularly afterwards (at the time, I lived just down the same street, so I passed by frequently).
