    I think this is great and don’t understand why so many people balk at it. Do you think you have an expectation of privacy in a bar? And head counts doesn’t tell you how many coeds are there. And this would add an additional layer of security with more eyes able to catch predators spiking drinks or starting fights.

      Do you want your drunk antics livestreamed and recorded for the entire world to see forever, instead of just the few people in the bar paying attention?

        No, but I’d prevent that by not having drunk antics. It’s not like other people in the bar can’t see you.

          If you have nothing to fear, etc etc…

          You could also prevent a hostile employer from seeing you out with your same-sex partner by pretending you don’t have one.

          Or, keep your honey from finding out about your side piece by putting a mask on their head…

            Filing you in public is not a violation of your privacy especially in a limited scope like a single club. That’s not at all equivalent to saying I should be able to read your emails.

            Public safety needs to be weighed against civil rights. I don’t think women should be drugged because of a extreme fundamentalist a paranoid interpretation of privacy rights.

            Also people want to club where it’s happening. Even if a club has a lot of people they could still not be dancing.

              Oooo a tankie!

              . I don’t think women should be drugged because of a extreme fundamentalist a paranoid interpretation of privacy rights.

              Oooo a straw man reducto ad absurdum argument!

                I’m not a tankie. And clubs already do their own closed circuit TV surveillance. And no my argument is not reducto ad absurdum. There is a growing and pervasive problem with drugging drinks in American bars. I only brought it up as a side benefit anyway. I’d really like the convenience of seeing how hot a bar is instead of having to pay to get in only to see that it’s lame and leave.

                  You strike me as a very youthful cop tbh, full of weird ideas of how the world works and with righteous belief that you are right and anyone who has a different pov is wrong… But that’s just based on this thread.
