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.”
Slavens and his partner left without ordering pizza and later wrote about the incident on Facebook. A local reporter captured the posts via screenshot. In the post, Slavens said that as he turned to leave, he heard the bouncer say, “You better get used to this, this is Trump’s America.” Read more (3/14/17 3:23 PM)
