Ohio pizzeria bouncer fired after removing gay couple, saying “This is Trump’s America”

Goodfellas Pizzeria in Cincinnati’s Over-the-Rhine neighborhood fired its bouncer after investigating a disturbing story about a gay couple’s recent visit. The couple told WLWT that a Goodfellas bouncer threatened to kick them out for kissing and holding hands.

Bobby Slavens said he and his friends were showing IDs to enter Goodfellas, at which point the bouncer observed Slavens and his fiancé and approached the couple.

“The bouncer came to us and said, ‘Hey, you guys need to stop that or you are going to get kicked out,’” Slavens said. “We were dumbfounded.”

Tigers Jaw- Never Saw It Coming

Don’t. 

That’s it. 

You shouldn’t pet strangers’ dogs without asking either.

In Boston while waiting for the T, there was a woman with her service dog in full gear also waiting. Two young women went right up to the dog and the moment one of the women reached out to pet the dog, the older woman slapped her hand away and said “My dog is working, do NOT pet.” And I smiled because those young women were in the wrong.

One of my dog’s jobs is detecting seizures.  He gives me a few minutes warning.  If he can’t warn me because he’s distracted, I could fall and hit my head. 

I could die of a head injury because I wouldn’t have time to find a place to sit and sit down.

But, hey, a stranger gets to pet my dog. 

Here’s an article on what happened when someone pet a service dog and it DID distract the dog resulting in the owner suffering a seizure and injuries. 

For anyone who doesn’t feel like reading, here is the key points:

Hailey has multiple illnesses including Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and epilepsy. Her service pup in-training, Flynn, has the important task of alerting her roughly 10 minutes before she has a seizure. This gives her time to find a safe place so that she does not injure herself while seizing.
