Scanning IDs is all good IMO
The idiots that run these establishments now need to realize that it is 2005 and racism should not be used to discriminate people from bars. I have not been allowed into bars countless times due to my skin color. I have never ever been involved in any fights or caused any trouble at the bars. If these idiots would just understand that skin color does not determine whether you are going to get into a fight... It's a person attitude.

Ditto.
As a born and raised Calgarian, I can honestly say that nothing has ever insulted and inraged me as much as the racial profiling that I've had to deal with at Calgary Nightclubs. Like you, I have never been in a fight or caused any kind of trouble in any club/bar or anywhere and having to go through this shinguard in my own home town p*sses me off like nothing else.
If scanning ID's will stop this shinguard (which I still doubt) I am all for it.
I would scan my ID, Sign a Waiver and give collateral if that's what it takes to do to not be treated with racism. [/b][/quote]
It's super shinguardty that kind of thing happens and I hope that Global expose forced clubs to smarten up (probably didn't though). Not sure how scanning an ID has anything to do with preventing racial profiling at the entrance to a club...
