Press Charges?

[SL33P3R]

Well, I was at this club the other night, Yes Im underage. Im the bathroom this bouncer said he would sell me a 21+ band and 3 VIP bands, so i did. Im up in VIP and one of the girls im with takes a sip of my drink then they come and tell both of us we have to leave. on the way to the stairs from VIP I said "I understand your on a powertrip" then the motherfucker pushes me down the stairs. We get to the bottom and im looking around for him and he pushes me in my face (pussy), does it one more time and then I get swooped up by this big ass dude, thrown out this door onto a dumpster with my neck on the edge. Im now handcuffed by the bouncer and i cant breathe with my neck on the edge. So i say "I cant breathe homie" and he punches me in my face 3 times. HAHA, so now I have a black eye and some other various things. Cops talk to me and say if im pressing charges they are gonna take me to jail, and if im not they will let me go home, so I went home.

What would YOU do?

[Dr.G35]

jail. with the money that you would win from that settlement you could buy a club.lol.

[americanctm]

Yo mayne you can meet a lot of "homies" in jail

[BanginJimmy]

you could admit to underage consumption, lose your license, pay fines, and have a record, or you can let a black eye heal. Sounds like a very cheap way to learn a lesson.

[AnthonyF]

I understand getting kicked out 100%, I was not arguing about that at all. I know I was in the wrong. But punching me in my face while I was handcuffed on my stomach had me wondering..

[Frög]

Wow.. Was this at Opera?

I had a similar situation.. The cops there are corrupt.. The bouncers get you arrested for anything... They are power tripping losers..

The club hires these off duty officers, and since they pay them, the club/bouncers are above the law and tell the cops what to do..

I can't believe this is legal..

Don't put yourself in a situation where if your kicked and punched around you have to pick between jail/charges?

[Njobe]

get a good ass lawyer and press charges. sue them for what they have and don't have. dont forget about me and give me some money too lol

[ranger250x]

go confront him about it(sober of cousre). Be polite and if he gets all physical, press charges after he deals you another black eye. Mind sharing where this happened?

Yes it was at Opera. And I assure you none of the bouncers there that night are off duty officers. TRUST ME. My dad is talking to his attorney, maybe I can own it haha

I know they aren't off duty officers.. There are bouncers, and the club pays for police officers to sit outside..

Those Police officers are corrupt and paid by the club and follow everything the club tells them to do..

[SL33P3R]

I know they aren't off duty officers.. There are bouncers, and the club pays for police officers to sit outside..

Yeah, The police officer came over after all this happen and gave me a pep talk. Then blackmailed me with the if your pressing charges/jail and if your not/go home

A law is a law. I dont care what the "bouncers" say. I just hate the feeling of not being able to defend myself. haha, getting punched in the face while handcuffed on your stomach, its almost impossible

[Frög]

Yeah, they are protecting their employer.. Its so fucked up..

To protect and serve.. Seriously, what do we expect? We give one of the most powerful jobs to the dumbest lowlifes (cops, which are high-school dropouts)


Its funny how I knew right away which club you were talking about..

[UpSideDownDesi]

should have pressed charges, if you used your valid ID to get in, but somehow ended up with 21+ vip passes and drinks. Not your fault, clubs fault to improperly check ID, allowing a underage to drink then using unnecessary force when you were not resisting. Yea the club got money, but if you have good enough lawyer the club will mostly likely try to settle it. All cops are hired by the clubs, and are pretty much working for them if they are standing infront of it. Public means shit to them then.

Edit saw it was opera. Didn't have a bad experience there, but they everyone from owner to bouncers aren't afraid to show power.

[Njobe]

^^ they already said Club Opera

i can now only assume that
you're an idiot
you're young
you think you know everything
fuckin kids these days.

[Z0_o6]

so because you went to a club underage, and got kicked out with a black eye you're gonna sue? i can't say i have much pity for you, even though it was excessive. you weren't supposed to be there in the first place. period. take it as a lesson learned and move on.

[JoeCoolinATL]

it does sound like the threadstarter just needs to wait till he's old enough to get into clubs tho.

[Frög]

It was a overly exaggerated generalization.. I agree, I have dealt with many decent and moral Police officers.. But the amount of corrupt ones is astronomical..

I do know one thing: I have an education, unlike most Police Officers.. Right?

[SL33P3R]

The club is 18+ since it was a concert people. I used my ID to get in, Once Im in, its all on them. Right?

[Njobe]

The club is 18+ since it was a concert people. I used my ID to get in, Once Im in, its all on them. Right?

it was illegal for the bouncer to sell you a 21+ band so yea its more on him than the club... you may just end up suing him if you go through with it

[JoeCoolinATL]

nope.

[Terror]

What the fuck?

I would definitely press charges.... thats total bullshit.

They gave you an ultimatum to press charges? im glad you made the choice you did... go home AND THEN press charges.

Fuck that place man.

[UpSideDownDesi]

You buying bands and drinks isn't legal either.

[Frög]

x2!

[SL33P3R]

nope.

You must be a cop? LOL Or are you the one that beat my ass? haha

[Njobe]

lolz

[Njobe]

still though its on the bouncer for supplying the band... that's almost the same as if he gave him the alcohol... the story of that mom who bought alcohol for the party and one of them (or more?) ended up dying and now shes doing time... same thing with the bouncer he was the supplier

[Z0_o6]

so on that principle, its only illegal to sell drugs, but not to buy/possess them? lol. i love all the wannabe "i'm never in the wrong" lawyers we have here. responsibility for your actions really shouldn't be viewed as an option people. man up and fucking get used to the whole cause and effect thing.

there is no age you can be to own drugs for it to be legal... you can buy/drink alcohol when you're 21... big difference

[Z0_o6]

oh ok. so yeah you're right, what was i thinking, underage drinking is legal. my bad. against the law is against the law dude.

Opera's answer in court, "Opera has released the bouncer from his duties, he no longer works for Opera. His actions were of his own not Opera."

Who is he to chase now? Bouncer probably made $50 a night and has no job now. Not worth chasing him. Opera walks, in return charges are filed against OP for underage drinking and him admitting to it in court.

truf... like i said earlier he would probably end up suing the bouncer and getting that $50 lol

[SL33P3R]

That was my question guys. I know for sure Im in the wrong for drinking. I can accept that. I was just wondering, if its worth trying to pursue. Thats all. I dont need people bickering at each other in here about whats legal and illegal

[UpSideDownDesi]

It's too late to do anything, let your eye heal and spot trouble before get in it next time. I had my fair share of 18+ fun, did it at clubs i knew bouncers or owners at or pre-gamed like rockstar and made sure i came back to do the business like ___star . Beer time, see y'all in few.

[BobbyFresco]

Chalk it up to an asswhooping and call it a day.
