A Very racist incounter at the door

on Sunday i went to market days. i had a great time. my friend is here on Vacation from Mexico for one month. On Sunday August 8, 2010 at approximately 11:30pm i decided to invite my friend to Rosco's bar where i never had a problem feeling discriminated by the color of my skin. On that Sunday i felt so singled out cause my friend had a Mexican id that looked exactly like him. your door Security Bob took his id and did not even try to give us the opportunity to get it back. he said "you tried this before, same thing every week." Bob was speaking to my friend in English and got upset cause he could not answer his question in English. i tried to step in and Bob ignored me and kept asking his question in English." I told Bob that my friend did not speak English. after he told us to wait out side, i told Bob i was ashamed of this treatment and i was upset. I gave him my business card and said i was going to come back for that id, i promise. he said "Well, if you want your friends id come back with the police." I called the police but as you know it was clean up time on Haulsted after the Market day event. Unfortunately, we had to call it a night. he had his passport in his hotel in Joliet Il. We where not able to enjoy the night cause of the discriminative action your security guard took that night. How would you feel if your friend came from another country and he or she was embarrassed by a unprofessional security guard that did not think twice of his racist action. we did pick up the id's the next day, and the sad part of if was your manage after comparing the id's with the same names and addresses, he told us to wait for the police and your manager did not not even apologize after the police returned the id's. I am ashamed of the actions your establishment has taken and i hope you take this mater serious.
