ooie.

total horse shit

Our protagonist in this story headed out for a friend’s birthday party that was to take place in a club that he hadn’t been to before. The “Prisma” in Dortmund. We didn’t know anything about the location beforehand, but well, from their website it looked alright.

On the 1.5h ride there three African kids sat down next to him in his four seat isle. They started blasting loud music from their cellphones so after a couple of minutes a controller came up to them and asked them to either stop the music or to leave the train at the next stop, “all of you.”
He told her, “Excuse me, but are you talking to me, too? I’m not with these people.”
Response, “Doesn’t matter. All of you.”
If they hasn’t stopped their music he would have been kicked out right along just for sitting next to them and having a similar skintone.

Bad enough but when he got to the club, guess what. They wouldn’t let him in.
He asked what the problem was and they told him everything about him (and he really was dressed nicely). So he called the friend who came out to talk to the bouncers.
That’s when they admitted it is because he is black.
It went something like this: “It’s Because he’s black. Are you German? See, would you let just anybody into your house? It’s your house, you got the choice. This is my ‘house’ and I don’t want those people in here.”
The second bouncer even started making fun of it about how they were being racist (which clearly is illegal here, too) and he couldn’t do shit about it. Even tried to talk down on him in English of the poorest level.
But yeah, even a guy in ripped jeans and shirt got in, while he was denied entrance.

So he left and headed home, another 1.5h ride (2h including waiting times etc.), got controlled for his train-ticket (that he had bought for his way back even before leaving Essen) and got ticketed. No explanation whatsoever, just telling him his ticket wasn’t valid and BAM! 40€ to pay within the next 14 days.
While he was fillingin his address etc. the controllers colleague came over, “Oh, American? That’s cool. In America every cop has a gun and even everyone just out in the street can carry a gun, no? When you go home you’ll be out carrying a gun, right? Because everyone can over there.” Lovely.

2x 4.50€ for traintickets + 40€ charge = ~50€ wasted on top of a boatload of disrespect and humiliation.

Even after sleeping I’m so mad over all that right now, it’s not even funny. Want to punch faces, to egg and then light up certain people’s cars. Drop a bomb and then have the bosses of those clubs in court. Or just have them have the assrape, without a trial. Gawd, how I wish I had a dick.
