The ID scanning policy didn't do this.Keeping people out of your club based on race or other similar factors doesn't do this either.

This is the million dollar question isn't it? I doubt there has been any serious studies done on Calgary bars on the relation between ethnicity and violence, but based on what I've learnt from my mom (a wise, unbiased nurse) its the Asians who end up in the ER. I think a club owner wouldn't take very long to see this correlation and be forced to make a hard decision.
Good post.
