 Coolness: 276425 | Like I said, blame 50 cent. He's the one who talks about burrying other people six feet under when he finds them, now he's in hiding cause the game was planning his murder.
Either way, he aint gonna be around long. |

| Coolness: 55490 | my correspondence with Aria on this issue:
Jean-Frederic, On the public statement released to Rave Montreal it was specifically stated: "C'est dommage pour ceux qui sont corrects et qui vont écoper parce qu'au Aria, l'entrée à toutes personnes de couleur noir et le moindrement habillé de façon ''hip-hop'' ce verra refuser et ce dès vendredi prochain." This specifically targets blacks, not "black and white gang members". I don't see how you can defend this as anything other than a policy of racial intolerance. And honestly, I further fail to see how security of you club is important to you - if you club practised proper security procedures, fights and incidents would be dealt with quickly and professionally, and weapons wouldn't be able to pass through your doors into your club. Finally, in regards to your statement "We don't care what you think us" - well, that much is clear. You don't care about your customers - and since you don't care about your customers, I will no longer be a customer. And neither will anyone I can convince otherwise. I honestly don't understand how you plan on staying in business with such an attitude.

 Coolness: 48240 | I really dont think he gives a fuck bout that. Theyre are always ppl.
N it is a free country and it is his club. If you dont want certain ppl there thats your choice. |

| Coolness: 55490 | yeah, it is a free country, which is why clubs shouldn't discriminate entrance based on race. it's NOT his choice. that's like saying "it's his company and if he doesn't want women working there, that's his choice". listen to yourself man. |

 Coolness: 201215 | yeah it's not good to descriminate on race.. what are they going to do ban all the black DJs too? Some of the best DJs are black...
Not letting people in with gang colours, that kind of attire, is fine. But not on race.. |

| Coolness: 48240 | o i am. And i dont hate aria for the choice he made at all.
sorry but not every is so left winging i guess. Its different when the GOVERMENT makes black ppl go on the bus, but if its ur company you can do wtv u want. Thats one of the problems with a free country ppl can do what they want, like the nazi olsen twins, like preacher nazism, or preaching anti-homosexaulity in the form of reggea music. OMG black ppl not allowed at aria and other gangster looking ppl OMG. Its montreal. The whole fucking city is a party. There is other places to go. |

I'm not a lawyer, but I'm pretty confident that descrimination based on race, sex, age, orientation, etc are illegal and go against the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. |

| Coolness: 48240 | note discrimination.
noun: unfair treatment of a person or group on the basis of prejudice lets say those 20 ppl were black(chances are most were seeing that they are banning black ppl) im not a lawyer but when a death is invovled i dont think banning black ppl, cause the owner lets say saw black ppl kill, who know's mabye another black man would stand up in court. i mean look at the concentration camps for japenese. Yes its unfair, yes it is morally wrong, but life isnt moral sometimes and unmoral sitautions sometimes demand unmoral acts. |

There is other places to go. you are completely wrong. companies cannot discriminate. there are many many laws to prevent this from happening. sorry. don't confuse freedom of speech with discrimination at a corporate or business level. |

Souldah where is your family from? Because I'm going to punish everyone of your background because you made a really stupid remark. I'm going to punish everyone who has your background by locking them in camps. Because one of them made a stupid remark. Sorry life is not always moral... |
