Barnett's Club in line to lose liquor license

[FavreChild]

Y'all are haters, GB City Council!! Besides, I am never in favor of denying a liquor license.

Seriously, though, GB can't be doing anything to make the city less attractive to young players, particularly young black players. Let them have their little nightclub. Sheesh.

Barnett, from the look of it, is part white. So what's the big deal? Let Barnett do his thing. Let freedom rings. Let liberals rule the world, and there will be peace.

The funny part is, is that these same people who are doing the bitching, are the ones complaining about the downtown becoming a Ghost Town and that all the new construction/restuarants, etc is in Ashwaubenon.

Guy Zima was the same small minded official who headed up the campaign to get the hot dog vendors off the streets at bar close, too.

Gotta love the priorities of our city officials.

It's great living here around packer related events,but seriously, this is one of the most narrow-minded conservative cities i've ever seen in my life.

What was the problem with the hot dog vendor? Violence breaking out when the onions were gone?

"before Barnett took it over, it was a gay dance club."

There's gays in Green Bay? And black people? And a guy named Zima is the local conservative? (shouldn't his last name be Miller or Budweiser?)

My god, what is the world coming to?

LOL !

Actually, because there was too much congestion afterwards. they citied it as a safety issue...from people wandering in the street (because ya know, it's a big difference if someone wanders in the street at 3 am vs 1 am) to fights breaking out (same sarcastic remark as above)

NIMBY... From what some of the others have posted it would seem that this club isn't in a heavy residential area, but for those residents that do live near there - you certainly can't blame them for wanting peace and quite in their neighborhood.

And it is those people who have to be considered first - it's where they live. How would any of you like it if you go to bed at 10pm and can't get to sleep b/c of noise... never minding the fact that morons are pissing in your flower garden.

I have very little patience for moronism; and, clubs like Barnetts tend to be magnets for morons. Some of you may couch this argument in racial or generational terms, but the bottom line is the residents who live in that area have every right to expect that their property will be respected and that they can live in their houses in peace and quiet.

Local government officials are absolutely correct in taking steps to ensure that residents can live their lives to that expectation.

Zima- the smae respectable official who years ago was caught shoplifting bratwurst at a grocery store.

Maybe the hot dog vendors were too legit.

wist, What did you think of the club when you went there?

[FavreChild]

Weren't the residents taken into consideration in the first place when the club went up, was licensed, etc.?

Anyways, fine the offenders, not the club. Personal responsibility and all.

The thing is that building has always been used for entertainment. Before five six it was a gay club, before that it was a movie theater/bar. The people in that area would know what they were getting into before they moved there. It is not a recent issue. That whole area was known for a long time as the worst in Green Bay the place to be for bar fights, drugs and cheap beer. Anyone who has lived here long enough has a very seedy picture of what the Broadway entertainment district is like. Nobody with a shred of intelligence would move to that area and expect a quiet peaceful place to raise a family.

[GBRulz]

They actually have cleaned up Broadway quite a bit, N. Broadway at least.

I guess they never had problems with urinating on lawns when it was a gay bar because then all the golden showers probably took place inside.

Exactly.

That's why it looks to me like "the man" be hatin'.
