Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs

Students from Washington University allege that a Chicago nightclub barred six black members of their class trip celebration while admitting nearly 200 white classmates. Bar personnel at Original Mother's bar cited baggy jeans as the reason to bar the students, but after a white student and black student exchanged jeans, the white was admitted while the black was still excluded.

Sounds like the bar was owned by republicans.

When most clubs attempt to have "hip-hop" night it usually ends with a dozen or so cops showing up.

Sounds like a guy who didn't want his club trashed or getting sued when someone got hurt.

We have clubs here in the Bay area who prohibit baggy jeans, any kind of ballcap and amazingly enough, aside from the usual occasional drunk asshole there are no problems.

Way to play the "victim card".

Do you really think it was a legitimate concern about the dress code?

Guess you didn't read the article.

FTA: He said he learned that the manager of the bar denied entry to the six students, and he said the manager told the students their baggy pants violated the bar's dress code. Cutz, who is white, said he confronted the manager. "These six [students] were better dressed than I was," Cutz told CNN. Nevertheless, Cutz said, he told the students to "go back to the hotel and change." But the manager of the bar stepped in to say that he had made his decision and that the six men could not return to the bar even if they changed clothes

Read about the "experiment" where a black and white student changed pants and were treated inequally?

The guy was being a racist asshole, no doubt about it.

You got a cite fer that that doesn't go to Stormfront?

Sounds like a racist asshole instigating illegal discriminatory practises and he should get his ass sued for it.

Be Well.

So he didn't want this club trashed by the 6 black students while their 200 classmates were inside enjoying it, paying them money for drinks? Especially when 2 of those african americans ARRANGED IT. Nice.

I won't be surprised if this club gets shut down once the boycott starts. Because it will.

Guess this was not in a community organized by big ears.

Mother's is a pretty cool bar. It's in the Rush Street area, even though it's on Division Street.

When a Chicago team, wins a championship, the streets around Mother's will be filled, and the TV stations set up cameras on Mother's rooftop so they can cover the celebrations.

Also, just a few blocks west of Mother's is the Cabrini Green Housing Projects. That area is no where as bad as it was back in the 70's and 80's, but more than a few out-of-towners have wandered west out of the Goldcoast area, and found themselves in the heart of Cabrini Green.

Why do you say that? Site some examples please..

Or are you just another stupid ass libtard..

I would thnk yes.....

Quick, you can still catch the bus to your job at BK.

Also, Mother's plays a significant role in the 1986 movie 'About Last Night'.

...when the first group of African-American classmates arrived.


Oh, so the students originally segregated themselves, but are now angry because whitey gave them what they wanted?

I can only imagine that when they were originally refused entry, they were completely understanding and didn't go apeshit. They probably spoke the queen's english, and acted in a civil manner. Hence why they would have been refused entry even after changing clothes.

A famous bar in Chicago has probably never even seen a black patron before, because as everyone knows, there aren't a shit-ton of africanus americanus residing there. So it's understandable for the owners to have been skittish around such an unbelievable circumstance such as a black patron...

In Chicago? How odd.

I would assume that African Americans boycotting will only make it easier to have a non-black bar, sorting doing their job for them.

I hear all the time how bartenders/waitresses hate working on hip-hop nights for 2 reasons, and yes, this is from many, many people and not an isolated incident:

1.) Black guy will order a couple of mixed drinks - when the bartender brings the drinks, he will say that he doesn't have that much money so he tries to negotiate a lower price. Basically, the bartender will give in as they can either get something for the drinks or throw them away and get nothing. Bartenders hate that as it throws off the register and they basically take zero tip on the sale. Now, this could be avoided by taking the money up front, but they don't do that in California and I am sure if they did it to only black customer or on hip-hop night, they would have an article like the one above written about them in short order.

2.) Black guys (I should say guys and girls) do not tip

I am sure that being white I have things that are non-standard about the way I do things in life. However, I have heard the above 2 things pointed out time and time again. Obviously, white society can not correct these problems without being racists, so it will be up to the black community to police itself.

Lastly, as to the 'baggy jeans', the article mentions that a white student that was shorter took switch pants which made them 'baggier'. I don't know if the author is stupid or just careless, but the baggy pants problem is one of being able to have a gun in the pockets, not because they are too long. It is an important distinction that basically invalidates the entire 'experiment' unless they tell us that the 2 students have the same build.

"When a Chicago team, wins a championship"

Don't hold your breath.

When most clubs attempt to have "hip-hop" night it usually ends with a dozen or so cops showing up.

Well they're two for two on my block.

First they tried hip-hop night at Tommy's. Big crowds, and fights pretty much guaranteed every Sunday night. It ended when a bouncer was shot by a patron he had denied entry to.
slog.thestranger.com

Once Tommy's closed down the Irish Emigrant started hosting hip-hop night. That lasted for about six months. Then one night, eight shots fired.
blog.seattlepi.com

Both bars are now gone.

The only other shooting I'm aware of in the neighborhood was when the cops shot some drunk kid who answered the cops knock at the door in a Nazi uniform, complete with rifle.

Well I certainly hope so. Clearly the proper way to react to illegal discrimination is to walk away quietly so as to avoid disturbing the White People trying to party, get on the bus, sitting in the rear, of course, and dutifully ride back to the ghetto where they belong.

I would say something straight and to the point, but it would probably go to wasteland. So I will try to fit in with my comments. I cherish the diversity of all peoples and am saddened that these Urban Americans were not cherished as much as Humans(I mean they are all humans right?).

I will NOT even say how much I honor Dixie, redneck culture and freedom of association, that would be wrong.

Have any of you seen the way typical young black people act? I have seen it time & time again. People will be having a good time at a lounge and a group of these badass wannabes show up and start throwing their weight around trying to show how tough they are. Sooner or later a fight almost always breaks out.
If I owned a bar I wouldn't want them there and it's a crying shame that someone is forced to jeopardize the safety of their decent customers by patronizing those thugs.
I was always against segregation but the more I see the less I want to be around them.
That's not racism thats just common sense.
I don't want to be around skinheads either.

White denial ?

Racism is clearly alive and well here on the DR.

No story here.

It seems tis club owner is very much in the wrong here. I highly doubt that 6 black COLLEGE students from Washington University were going to be any more of a problem than their 200 white counter-parts. Now that being said, I must agree with post #20 to some extent. Yes, when me and my friends are out on the town going to clubs/bars/strip joints and we see like 10 "gansta ass" black(or white) guys swagger into the place being loud as all hell and just making as big a entrance as possiple; We leave. Same goes when 10 white, shaved head, bomber jacket and black boot clad dip-shits come into a place; We leave. I want nothing to do either version of these groups of morons.

Wait, this story was about 6 black college students? Fucking hilarious. I thought these were high school kids, and my first thought was 6 high school graduates...That's amazing. But now that I know they were supposedly college students I'm calling this a made up story.

I won't be surprised if this club gets shut down once the boycott starts. Because it will.

I was thinking about suing the Ayrian Nations for denying me membership.

Nobody is predicting a Sit-In?

LOL. What a bunch of ninnies around here.

Grow a pair and maybe young black men won't be so attracted to you at clubs.

Of course I did.

"inequaaly"?

I read the article. You tools have your view, and I have mine.

Go find a fucking life.


Throw it out there and they go for it.

I'm not the one who acts like a scared little girl the minute a black kid enters the room.

This post is not directed at anyone in particular. I just happened to think it was racially charged, insensitive, and crude. In other words, I couldn't help but post it.

(Enter target's name here),
Like Obama's grandmother, I cross the street when I see some black man walking towards me.
Like Obama's mother, you lay down and spread your legs when you see a black man comming.

Ok, from looking at this thread I have come to a conclusion. There are mainly 2 groups of people posting on this tread:

1. Liberals who actually think that blacks don't hate them and the rest of society. Blacks are just victims of white opression, and it would be fine if my dainty little white daughter brings home HIP HOP TYRONE.

2. All others who realize the danger of certain URBAN AMERICANS, and try to avoid said group at all costs.

"Ok, from looking at this thread I have come to a conclusion. There are mainly 2 groups of people posting on this tread:"

I can think of at least two other groups:

People who are fully aware of what happens in bad neighborhoods but are still not pissing their pants when a few black college kids enter a room. (like me).

Total pussies who are scared of any and all black people and try to pretend that anyone who doesn't share their sissbyboy fears is "naive". (like you)

Fucking A, what a bunch of pussboys. I can't believe all these DR posters with their carefully crafted tough guy images are so scared of some guys because of the color of their skin. Better keep to the Applebee's and TGI Fridays kids, and avoid the clubs downtown.

Don't act like you want them to fuck you and they'll leave you alone.

Your love of diversity has an inverse squared relationsip to your proximity to it.

Diversity is a politically correct way of saying fuck whitey

Not a strawman -

its an observation.

I am not challenging you to rebut it.

you are communicating that blacks, as a specific group, respond in predictable ways to certain stimuli.

Do you need to go review your post?

"you are communicating that blacks, as a specific group, respond in predictable ways to certain stimuli."

No, I didn't. You are making that up.

"Do you need to go review your post?"

I know exactly what I wrote. You are lying.

To the extent that a person of any color wants to pick on a stranger in a public place, they are going to do it to the person that shows the most fear.

Why is common sense so alien to you?

Have you ever seen an Applebee's or TGIFridays commercial? The africanus americanus loves the microwave cuisine at those establishments.

Truth in advertising!

They also like Red Lobster.

Watch it, 101. You remember what happened last time you went to Applebee's. Or maybe you don't....?

The last time was the first time, damn it. It will also be the last time.
