From the story, which states that drag queens will be banned on Tuesdays only:
"Drag queens act like they are divas and think they can't do no wrong," [Crews' owner David] Moore said. "They have stolen money straight off the bar, hassled costumers for drinks and locked themselves in the bathroom with a bunch of guys. And with Tuesday being our busiest night, there is just no way for me to keep the draq queens under control then. I don't want draq queens in here that are going to misbehave."
Interestingly, Moore says he can't tell the good ones apart from the bad, because "if a drag queen misbehaves one week and then the next comes back in a different outfit I wouldn't be able to recognize them. That's why I don't want any of them in here on Tuesdays."
There's a protest planned at Crews' tomorrow night at 10 p.m.
What do you think? I sympathize with the owner trying to keep his bar under control, but it seems wrong to me to kick out everyone, including the people who aren't doing anything wrong. Seems like there could be a middle ground here somewhere.
