‘I didn't know how many bouncers it would take to get me out of that bar, but I knew how many they were gonna use.’ - Ron White

[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] British teen beaten by bouncers at Greek island nightclub reveals injuries and the truth about how brutal assault broke out as his 'devastated' mother issues warning to parents whose children are going to Zante.

Distressing footage shows James Taylor, 18, being beaten up by bouncers.
The lesson, apparently, is to beware of Serbian men in groups, especially when they’ve been hired as bouncers. More generally, of course, you leave all your protections behind when you go abroad. Especially if you’re a dumb, drunk kid still learning the rules of adulthood. Were he a girl he probably would have found himself raped in a dark corner, and the local police would have told him he shouldn't have gone off with those nice men.

#5  Box of donuts on: boy of privilege on vacay with similar mates getting drunk/high and being douchey, earning the spankings he should have received as a kid compounded with interest.

#4  Typically a bouncer doesnt just rough you up because of nothing. And it typically doesnt take more than one bouncer to kick your ass unless you are especially douchey.

"The evil Serb beat me up b/c I only stood on a chair..."

According [via Greek Local News] to club workers they intervened after the British man, who was violent and out of control, had previously beaten a 19-year-old girl and attacked her with a bottle.

#3  His mistake was failing to shower the Serbians with love to show them the way that he feels.

#2  Glad the ladyboy did his hair before taking selfies of his very, very lucky face.

Young men - hitting the gym a little bit and getting your eyebrows waxed is not the real world.

Take a look at the mate with the Brazilian butt model triceps, then look at the dude built like a 1940s refrigerator. Check the fiber definition. That is applied strength, like what you see in the legs of ballerinas or the arms of farm hands.

#1   you leave all your protections behind when you go abroad. out into the world.

Fortunately, I had respect for authority and situational awareness beaten into me at the outset of my travels off the block. Lessons well learned from thorough instructors.
