I have never been disrespected like this in my life.
When going into the establishment, the front doorman said I would have to remove my turban as it is not religious, other patrons in the line complained and the doorman changed his mind and let us in.
We spent the entire night on the second floor, and closer to the end of the night unbeknownst to us, a bouncer said we needed wristbands to be on the second floor. He said I would have to leave the establishment, I complied and requested to be given my jacket before going outside in the negative degree weather. The bouncer did not listen, and told me to wait outside while he gets the jacket. As im waiting outside in the cold, I compalined to the doorman that this is not right, its too cold outside to be waiting for a jacket. As I am talking to the doorman, another bouncer reaches over and pulls my turban off my head. At this point I am outraged, and the bouncer is wanting to fight me. I pull out my phone and try recording the bouncer, and he knocks my phone out of my hand. We called the police at this point, and upon arrival the police said they would deal with the issue.
In retrospect, I should have made the police charge the bouncer with assault or a hate crime. I would not reccomend this nightclub to anyone, especially anyone who is a part of a visible minority. The bouncers are clearly racist from their actions, and who would want to support such a business.
