Can a bouncer legally put their hands on you if you aren't being violent or threatening harm to anyone?

You dont understand what blackjack is. The game is designed to be 50/50 win loss. Casinos profit off the food drinks slots and the odd drunk idiot who hits on 20 because he doesnt understand blackjack is like yourself apparently.

Wow, you are really wrong. Read a little bit about blackjack before you post about it.

It's close to 50/50 but not quite if you follow all the rules. Most people don't know all the rules, and don't do well at following then when the free booze is flowing. The casinos aren't waiting for people to hit on 20, they make their money off people hitting on 12 when the dealer is showing a bust card, or not doubling down with an ace. It's little mistakes that seem reasonable but tilt the odds in the casinos favor that allows them to make a lot of money over time.

It's called property law. You don't own the club, it is someone else's property. When they tell you to leave, if you don't comply, they can use force. You could do the same to someone in your house. If you invite them in (like the club did for you) and then want them to leave, you can use force to move them off your property if they are not complying peacefully with your request.

Plot twist. It turns out that my father is good friends with the owner of the bar in question (that's small town life for you). My dad is going to try to set up a social get together so I can tag along and see if I can do something about meathead's employment situation.

David Leavitt is that you?

You entered an area you weren't suppose to be in and now you want to get the bouncer fired. You seem to be a real jerk.

How do these obvious troll threads always make the front page?

Incorrect.

Update: I feel vindicated.

Had lunch with my father and the bar owner. I decided to broach the subject with some subtlety. Instead of being aggressive or demanding or anything, I just approached it like "hey, here's a funny story about something that happened to me at your bar." The owner was immediately like "oh, so it sounds like you met (meathead's name)...sorry about that" and told me that meathead had already been fired. Dude had just been hired a few weeks ago, and apparently was being overly aggressive not only with patrons, but with fellow staff members who tried to tell him to ease the f*ck up. They canned him just a day or two after my incident without me even reporting anything.

Now, I know that an apology for judging me and blaming me for the incident is too much to expect from you all, but it's enough for me that you all now know that I was right.

On the plus side, I did get the guy's first and last name.

Bootlickers of LR go home devastated!

Lots of lower class people need some bullying to feel okay with themselves. Stay above the idiots.

These guys will probably end up with criminal records or health issues without the money to pay for them. Or some people are just more successful than you.

Depends on the jurisdiction if they have to have a security license or not, but even without one they are generally allowed to use "reasonable" force to expel someone. You went into a closed area, they chose to expel you, you chose to ignore them, he used reasonable force to get your stupid asz out of the bar. Don't go into closed areas, idiot. Rules are for everybody else right? Guys like you need a beat down.

The OP asked a reasonable question. You respond with 'idiot.' In what world is that a reasonable escalation? Let's be civil.

How is that a proportionate way to reply? Responding in such a way to a thread that has so little to do with your life shows a frightening level of general rage and bitterness. I honestly hope, for your sake - but also for those around you - that you address this in an honest and serious way.

Way to go Tommy! You sure showed that meat head a thing or two! Are you by chance related to the Ferraris out of Blue Bay?

Assuming you're in the USA just go back to the bar with a shotgun and blow him away.
