I ordered a L Brand beer from the bartender, who then loudly expressed his disdain for that particular beer, refusing to serve it. When I asked for a recommendation instead, he rudely replied that he didn't have time for that. What initially seemed like a joke quickly turned into a serious and uncomfortable situation. His aggressive and bullying attitude towards me simply because of my choice of beer was embarrassing. I quickly finished half of my beer and left, heading to another bar across the street where I had a much more enjoyable evening.

However, a drawback was the lack of intervention when a British patron threw a glass dangerously close to me and my young son. I recommend hiring a bouncer to ensure the safety of all patrons.

I was talkin to a women and a guy came up and try to forced her to kiss him, after that he try the same with me with force just like her. I reject him violently. After that another guy try to do the same with me I reject him too and I saw him doing the same with another young guy dancing But really violently. It 's sexual abuse to invade sacred space like that when you refuse verbally and then you have to use force. Normally I would ' punch them but I was here to have a good time. But as a black guy in vacation I would have all the trouble on me. Cops was not far around. Next time bartenders should signals that cause one of the event happens next To the bar. I was too drunk to signal it. Maybe it 's an LGBT bar and I should have run far far away but signal it at the entry please. With a rainbow flag or whatever. Cause this is not normal to be harrassed twice a night in a bar by 2 gay as a 100% heretosexual and to saw a women rejecting violently a guy and also another guy rejecting the same weird gay that intent to touch me and to kiss me before. 4 harrassing situations in one night and 2 include myself. I 've never lived this in my life before and I 'm a huge partier around a lot of place in the world. And I always respect everyone everywhere I go. It happens the 20 May Saturday Night till Sunday 21 May
