Harrahs treated me like I'm a potential terrorist tonight

[CarlSpackler]

I went to a harrahs casino tonight after 1am. I poured myself a pink lemonade and did one lap around all the tables on the first floor with the two girls I was with. I wasn't loud, uncivil, or unruly. I was my cool, calm and collected self... arguably the most quiet guy in the place. Some harrahs blond girl took my lemonade out of my hand like it was an alcoholic drink and asked for my id. I was shocked and handed over my drink and id (I'm 30). I was then told to leave the place after some guy wrote down my description like I was a terrorist; I hadn't even had the chance to place my name on the poker waiting list.

To make a long story short, I was basically treated like a potential terror suspect by harrahs. They gave me no explanation and asked me to leave immediately. This is their right as a private business, but it doesn't make it just. Security had no idea what was going on -- they had no answers for why I was asked to leave.

I've been on the fence as far as racial profiling goes, concerning our country. But after tonight, eff racial profiling. If I get singled out at a casino for doing nothing wrong (literally), then there is no way racial profiling will justly work in the USA as far as terrorism goes.

Harrahs stance tonight was inexplicable. They were acting like an anti-democratic government, taking away basic liberties, and jumping to conclusions with no rhyme or reason.

FWIW, the girls I was with have no idea why I was asked to leave, and neither did the security guard at the door.

Next time take off the turbin and don't write down "Osama" on the waiting list.

if Harrah's gives up the fight and lets potential suspects into the casinos, the Terrorists win...

you don't want them to win do you? - I didn't think so - no go out, reproduce, and feed your children to the war machine - we need some more grease for the tanks...

Two girls? TWO girls??? That's just showing off.

The house pimp probably thought you were making a move on his territory and got you kicked out.

Everone who responed to the OP are uneducated morans and have probably never left the town they were born in. If what the OP said is true I would raise hell with Harrahs, the enmey wins if a olive complextion person cant walk into a casino. Thats what they want is a divided America.

You really should try to find out what that was about. Did you get the name(s) of your ejectors? Sure, they have a right to deny you service, but from a customer service perspective, they have an interest to keep people happy.

So, write them a letter or, if you're feeling frisky, call their head of security and ask why you were ejected.

Were you 86'd or just asked to leave for the night?
